It was collected in a small, clear water path exiting the north end of the lake and in the lake itself. However it little else is known about the ecology, but it seems that it prefers habitats with some submerged vegetation and muddy bottoms. It was sympatric with Gambusia beebei, Nandopsis haitiensis, Limia nigrofasciata, L. garnieri, L. miragoanensis, L. immaculata and some introduced species, such as Oreochromis aureus and Tilapia rendali (Ref. 128733).
