It has a shorter snout than C. splendens, a larger eye, grows to a larger size, and has its head covered ventrally by a large shield extending beyond the tip of the mental barbels. It will grow in length up to {{convert|8.8|cm|in|abbr=off}}.[1] It lives in a tropical climate in water with a temperature range of {{convert|20|-|24|C|F}}. It feeds on worms, benthic crustaceans, insects, and plant matter. It lays eggs in dense vegetation and adults do not guard the eggs. See also
