Shallow coastal to outer reef flats and slopes to 45 m depth (Ref. 48636). Common inhabitant of coral reefs, typically resting at the bases of coral heads (Ref. 9710). Studies indicate that it is haremic and spawns nightly (Ref. 37816). Occasionally in pairs (Ref. 48636). Sometimes solitary (Ref 90102).
Pelagic spawner (Ref. 31569). Spawning ascents into the water column occurred over a distance of 0.2 to 0.6 m (Ref. 54536).
