Adults are coastal species. They do not form large schools (Ref. 35237). Juveniles are encountered in brackish estuaries (Ref. 5217), moving to greater depths as it grows, but not deeper than 50 m (Ref. 9626). Eggs are pelagic, spawning occurs generally in summer (Ref. 35237). Marketed fresh (Ref. 9626).
