This fish reaches about 19 centimeters in maximum length. It lives in swampy waters. It is omnivorous and is utilized to control snails.[2] In the wild, snails make up a significant part its diet. This is reflected in its thick jaw, adapted to crush shells.[3] It is not considered to be a threatened species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).[1] The specific name honours Charles A. Alluaud (1861-1949) the French explorer and entomologist who was the collector of the type specimen of this species.[4]
