| Comments: | Recorded from Santa Monica, Iba, San Sebastian and Pugad. Has probably been ithroduced via the ornamental trade, farmed in fishponds and escaped during flooding events (Ref. 108831). Believed to have caused the decline in catch of other important food-fish due to competition for food and space, although not much evidence is available regarding their negative impact (Ref. 108831).
