Conraua crassipes is a common species living in or near fast-flowing, clear-water rivers and streams in low altitude rainforest, possibly to elevations up to about 1,000 m (3,300 ft) above sea level. It tolerates some habitat degradation, provided that trees remain and the habitat does not become too open. It is adversely affected by the loss of its forest habitat for agriculture, logging and human settlements, and sedimentation of its breeding streams. It occurs in several protected areas.[1]
