Écologie
marin récifal; non migrateur; profondeur 3 - 12 m (Ref. 7247). Tropical
Western Pacific: there are two separate populations but further collections may provide evidence for a continuous distribution. The first population inhabits the South China and Java seas. The second population is known from eastern Queensland and the vicinity of Daru Island off southern Papua New Guinea.

Adults inhabit coastal reefs around coral or rock outcrops on soft bottoms (Ref. 9710). 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). Have been reared in captivity (Ref. 35404). Diurnal species (Ref. 113699).
