🌀 Behaviour

Behavioural data for Bryconops Inpai is currently being reviewed.

🦐 Diet

Bryconops inpai's native range is made up of rivers with very little endemic plant life, which makes it inhospitable to many other species. As such, B. inpai's diet largely consists of terrestrial insects that are washed into the river or fall in from trees hanging above. This is in line with much of the rest of the genus, which is made up mostly of invertivores. B. inpai also takes supplemental plant matter, largely in the form of flowers and seeds (which is also not uncommon in Bryconops).
