Description: Yellow-orange tail and posterior parts of dorsal and anal fins (Ref. 48636). Body depth 2.5-2.6 in SL (Ref. 90102).
Life Cycle
provided by Fishbase
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).
Morphology
provided by Fishbase
Dorsal spines (total): 13; Dorsal soft rays (total): 13 - 15; Analspines: 2; Analsoft rays: 14 - 15
Trophic Strategy
provided by Fishbase
Inhabit lagoon and seaward reefs, close to the bottom among rubble beds. The favoured habitat consists of outer reefs in clear water, frequently among coral rubble in areas exposed to slight wave action or strong currents (Ref. 54301). Adults in small groups or congregate in large numbers over favorable sections of reef (Ref. 48636). Feed on zooplankton and plants (Ref. 26990). Diurnal species (Ref. 113699).
Biology

Adults inhabit lagoon and seaward reefs, close to the bottom among rubble beds. Feed on zooplankton and to a lesser extent on benthic algae. Juveniles often school among soft corals. Adults in small groups or congregate in large numbers over favorable sections of reef (Ref. 48636). 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).
