Satanoperca jurupari is a freshwater fish from the cichlid family. It lives on the bottom of rivers in South America and obtains food by sifting bottom sediment through its mouth.
Satanoperca jurupari differs from other cichlids by its special feeding method — constant sifting of the substrate. This fish is important for nature because it processes organic remains on the bottom and serves as food for larger predators.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
