Male territoriality usually over upper surfaces of medium-sized and large rocks, small proportion of males may occupy less prominent sites and some defend areas at the base of rocks where they dig sand-scraped nests. Females, juveniles and non-territorial adult males may occur singly or form small groups (to 30 fish).
