Comments: This species typically occurs on brightly illuminated surfaces of either living <i>Colpophyllia natans</i> or algae encrusted covered coral remnants in shallow waters (3-8 m depth). Most specimens were observed not to move before an extremely close approach and once disturbed, individuals would move rapidly a short distance (less than 50 cm) across the substrate, before returning again to a stationary position. After repeated disturbances, these individuals would retreat into the cover of small holes, crevices or the underside of eroded corals. No feeding, cleaning and reproductive behaviors were observed (Ref. 58341).
