Inhabit lagoon and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710). Closely associated with Acropora corals, particularly the staghorn variety. Territorial and in pairs (Ref. 9710). Juveniles solitary among coral branches (Ref. 48636). Feed mainly on coral polyps and therefore does not adjust easily to aquarium conditions. Oviparous (Ref. 205), monogamous (Ref. 52884). Form pairs during breeding (Ref. 205).

Distinct pairing (Ref. 205). Monogamous mating is observed as both obligate and social (Ref. 52884).
