				Found over shallow, clear waters, generally over Thalassia beds (Ref. 13628).  Also found rocky or coral areas (Ref. 13628).  A schooling species.  Feeds on plants.  A protogynous hermaphrodite (Ref. 55367).  Super males spawn individually with striped females, while sexually mature males in the striped phase spawn in aggregation.
