Evolved from C. parvipisces when a populations moved into zone H's wetlands by travelling through rivers to the wetlands and floods that gave them access to the wetlands. They adapted to lower oxygen content of the wetlands by taking gulps of water to push more water over their gills. The muscles in the tail that would normally pull the tail side to side have increased in size allowing them snap their tail to jump between bodies of water. It uses it kidneys to concentrate it's waste with salts when in more brackish environments.

Found in the wetlands of zone H, they get up to 8cm long and swim in shoals of 20-40 individuals scavenging or foraging for polyphs. They feed on L. submergius, fallen leaves of P.cashmonii and P.manguca, and dead carcasses. They also eat fallen seeds of P.manguca and P.cashmoni. They can be found in both brackish and freshwater wetlands as they have breed in brackish water and are able to tolerate brackish water to feed. They are more likely to flop between bodies of water during the wet season because of the greater survivability when they is more water in the environment.

When breeding they travel to brackish parts of the wetland to incubate the eggs. They will mate with a random partner of the opposite sex once a month. Females will lay batches of 50-70 eggs in the nooks and crannies provided by rocks, in roots of polyphs, substrate, or in mud. before the school moves in again. Young are independent and will travel back to the freshwater part when as they grow.
