It is threatened by increased turbidity of the water due to the expansion of agriculture and deforestation in the land the rivers it occurs in drain. Pollution from that agriculture and introduced species also threatened the Rwandese carp.

Labeobarbus ruwenzorii is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in Uganda. Its natural habitat is rivers. It reproduces by inserting its seminiferous tubules into the mate's orifice, resulting in the discharge of unfertilised spawn.
Labeobarbus is a mid-sized ray-finned fish genus in the family Cyprinidae. Its species are widely distributed throughout eastern Africa and especially southern Africa, but also in Lake Tana in Ethiopia. A common name, in particular for the southern species, is yellowfish. The scientific name refers to the fact that these large barbs recall the fairly closely related "carps" in the genus Labeo in size and shape. As far as can be told, all Labeobarbus species are hexaploid.
Labeobarbus brevicephalus is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Labeobarbus which is endemic to Lake Tana in Ethiopia.

Labeobarbus mirabilis is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Labeobarbus. Its type locality is the Ituri River, near Mawambi, Ituri Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo. It has not been found in other locations. This species was initially placed in the genus Barbus, but is now considered to be a member of Labeobarbus. Some experts have raised the possibility that, with more research, L. mirabilis might become classified as a junior synonym of L. somereni.
The rhinofish is a ray-finned fish species in the family Cyprinidae. Its taxonomic identity is not entirely clear. Some taxonomic authorities consider Labeobarbus mariae as the rhinofish, however Fishbase identifies the range of L. mariae as occurring in Guinea. Rhinofish appear to occur in Kenya, as the range seems not to be in dispute. Further clarification is needed on both species.
The Cyprininae are one of at least 11 subfamilies of cyprinid fish. It contains three genera in its strictest definition but many more are included depending on which authority is defining it, especially if the Labeobarbinae is not considered to be a valid grouping.
