Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 10 - 12; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 6 - 8; Anale stekels: 3; Anale zachte stralen: 8. Color variable; body generally black or brown; 2 dark stripes behind eye; dorsal spines orange distally; bluish stripe along basal part of dorsal fin (Ref. 5473).
Adults are found under stone or corals in flood basins and lagoons (Ref. 9137). They are common but very secretive and usually found when turning rubble pieces in pools (Ref. 48635). They venture out in the open at night to feed on small crustaceans, fishes and gastropods (Ref. 37816). Eggs are guarded by the male parent (Ref. 205). Minimum depth reported from Ref. 30874.
