Devario gibber is a freshwater fish endemic to the Xe Kong and Xe Don basins in Laos. It occurs in stone-bottomed, clear streams with moderately fast to rapidly flowing water, and is uncommon in floodplains. It is caught in local subsistence fisheries, but not believed to be substantially impacted by them.
