Adults inhabit sheltered fringing reefs, usually in bays at depths between about 3 to 20 m. They occur in small aggregations; closely associated with branching formations of live coral, particularly Acropora spp. and the pocilloporid Seriatopora hystrix. The fish hovers a short distance above the substratum, presumably feeding on zooplankton (Ref. 74966). 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).
