Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 5.9 cm SL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 96378)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 12; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 9 - 10; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 11 - 12. Small juveniles are bright yellow and females become more orange as red lines develop. Males are mainly pink with red lines (Ref. 48636).
Adults are common around rubble and sand in steep outer reef slopes (Ref. 9710), and drop-offs, usually adjacent to very deep water. They form small aggregations in soft bottom habitats with sponges and soft corals. The group usually comprising juveniles and females which are dominated by a large male (Ref. 48636). Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Maximum depth reported taken from Ref. 128797.
