Found near the surface, usually associated with floating objects (Ref. 26340) or Sargassum. Found near shore and occasionally among floating seaweeds (Ref. 57225). Commonly blown into shore and bay waters during storms (Ref. 7251). Epipelagic (Ref. 58302). A solitary (Ref. 26340) and voracious predator (Ref. 5521). They feed on fishes and shrimps that seek refuge in the floating weeds (Ref. 48635). Oviparous. Eggs are bound in ribbon-like sheath or mass of gelatinous mucus called 'egg raft' or 'veil' (Ref. 6773, 48635). Solitary or loose groups among floating seaweed (Ref 90102).
Oviparous. During courtship, the male follows the female closely then both rush to the surface to spawn (Ref. 205). At this point, eggs are produced in a gelatinous floating mass or 'raft' and inseminated by the male. The eggs remain embedded in this raft until hatching (Ref. 240).印度洋: 南非的頂端向東至印度洋與斯里蘭卡,包括紅海，馬達加斯加，留尼旺島與模里西斯。 西太平洋: 北海道到熱帶澳洲 (向南遠至在西部中的柏斯而且在東部中向南遠至雪梨), 包括台灣，菲律賓，模里西斯，巴布亞新幾內亞南部，關島，東加，新加勒多尼亞與紐西蘭; 在密克羅尼西亞的馬里亞納群島.(參考文獻 1602) 在東太平洋的發生保持麻煩。 西大西洋: 緬因灣到烏拉圭的拉布拉塔河河口。 東大西洋: 亞速群島與外海的非洲西方部; 來自挪威北部的瓦杜 (Duben& Koren 1846) 的記錄是以被北大西洋與挪威海流帶往北方的一個離群的魚為依據。
