Indo-West Pacific. Red Sea and south to Delagoa Bay, Mozambique (Ref. 4329). Migrated to the Mediterranean through the Suez Canal (Ref. 5385). Also occurs in the Arafura Sea (Ref. 9819). Likely at Seychelles (Ref. 1623).
Adults occur inshore (Ref. 7300) and in deep offshore reefs (Ref. 9710). Found among weeds (Ref. 1623). Nocturnal species. Feed at night on zooplankton (Ref. 43448). Have been reared in captivity (Ref. 35416). Mouthbrooders, the males incubate the eggs (Ref. 43448).

Estimates of some properties based on empirical models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01341 (-0.11969 - 0.14651), b=3.13 (3.05 - 3.21), based on LWR estimates for species & family-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.50 se; Based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 69278): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100) .
