This species can still tolerate, slow or fast flowing water and can tolerate a high level of pollution. The shade of Gizzard often occurs in flood pools. Gizzard shadow often thrives in water, where other species cannot easily survive, or where pollution in water inhibits breeding. Gizzard Shad meat has an unattractive texture and a strong taste, as well as numerous bones, so it is not very popular as a source of food for humans.

While extreme cold can quickly and drastically reduce the number of these fish in a certain water body, re -settlement of the area requires only a small number of surviving fish because they behave prolifically. This is commonly seen in regions where temperatures regularly drop under freezing for a long time during the winter. During the spring, when water temperatures begin to rise, there is a huge number of young are produced, rapidly increasing the number and replacing the fish lost during the winter.
