Comments: Adults inhabit eroded basins and limestone boulders covered by an algal mat, sea fans, etc. (Ref. 5521).  Sometimes around mangrove roots, young are sometimes found in floating <i>Sargassum</i> (Ref. 26938).  Omnivorous, but feed mostly on algae (Ref. 13442).  Oviparous.  Eggs are demersal and adhesive (Ref. 205), and are attached to the substrate via a filamentous, adhesive pad or pedestal (Ref. 94114).  Larvae are planktonic, often found in shallow, coastal waters (Ref. 94114).
