Rhodeus fangi (Miao, 1934) |
Rhodeus fangi is a subtropical freshwater fish belonging to the Acheilognathinae sub-family of the Cyprinidae family. It originates in the Pearl River (Zhu Jiang), Yangtze River (Chang Jiang), Yellow River (Huang He) and Amur River (Heilong Jiang) in China. It was originally described as Pararhodeus fangi by C.P. Miao in 1934.
When spawning, the females deposit their eggs inside bivalves, where they hatch and the young remain until they can swim.
