Spawning occurs over the pit. Male guards the nest from intruders. As eggs are deposited in the pit, the male covers them with stones and excavates another pit immediately downstream. As spawning continues and the male covers the eggs, a long ridge of gravel develops. Page, L.M. and B.M. Burr 1991 A field guide to freshwater fishes of North America north of Mexico.
