Puntius latersitriaga is a small freshwater fish from the carp family. It lives in rivers of Southeast Asia and is distinguished by a black spot on its side in the shape of the letter T.
Puntius latersitriaga differs from other barbs with a distinct T-shaped black spot on its side. In nature, the fish helps control the population of insects and serves as food for larger fish.
Collects food from the bottom, in the water column, and occasionally from the surface.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
