It is largely herbivorous, consuming aquatic macrophytes and submerged land plants, as well as filamentous algae and occasionally insects (Rainboth 1996). It also feeds on small fishes, worms and crustaceans.
It requires flowing water and would not be expected in reservoirs, but is found in still water in Singapore where it has been introduced.
