Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit silty lagoons and harbors. Monogamous (Ref. 55367). A protandrous hermaphrodite (Ref. 32166). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Associated with the anemones: Heteractis crispa and Stichodactyla haddoni (Ref. 5911). Has been reared in captivity (Ref. 35420, 35423).
