Umwelt: Milieu / Klimazone / Tiefenbereich / Verbreitungsgebiet
Ökologie
seewasser riff-verbunden; standorttreu; tiefenbereich 20 - 65 m (Ref. 7247). Tropical; 30°N - 18°S
Indo-West Pacific: eastern Indian Ocean (Rowely Shoals), New Guinea, Coral Sea, Solomon Islands, Fiji, Samoa, Guam, and Ryukyu Islands. Eastern Indian Ocean: Australia (Rowely Shoals). Absent from most Indo-Australian coastal reefs (Ref. 1602).
Größe / Gewicht / Alter
Geschlechtsreife: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 6.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 9710)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 14; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 11 - 13; Afterflossenstacheln: 2; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 13 - 14.
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
Adults inhabit rubble and rocky outcrops in sand channels of steep outer reef slopes (Ref. 9710); also on rich coral and algae mixed rubble-like zones on deep slopes. Usually in small groups, staying close to the substrate (Ref. 48636). Feed mainly on copepods. Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Eggs are demersal and adhere to the substrate (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Diurnal species (Ref. 54980; 113699).
