FBname: Neretva dwarf goby
Comments: Occurs in clear karstic springs, lakes, slow-flowing streams and small rivers.  Longevity is less than 2 years. Spawns after first winter with males defending the eggs in cavities under stones, plant material or shells. Juveniles are free swimming while adults are benthic.  During summer droughts, this species may survive in underground waters (Ref.59043).
