Comments: Schooling in coastal waters and ascending rivers to breed.  Adults are found near the surface at sea while larvae and juveniles spend the first two years of their life in river tide pools and estuaries (Ref. 57990).  Feed on planktonic crustaceans like cyclopoids and other copepods, and rotifers (Ref. 45563).
