Rhodeus spinalis is a subtropical freshwater and brackish water fish belonging to the Acheilognathinae subfamily of the family Cyprinidae. It originates on Hainan Island and the Xijiang River basin in China , and may be native to portions of Vietnam. The fish reaches a length up to 10.0 cm (3.9 in). When spawning, the females deposit their eggs inside bivalves, where they hatch and the young remain until they can swim.[2]
