Found on outer reef slopes, hovering above the bottom. They swim often high above the substrate to pick prey from the substrate with their excellent eyesight (Ref. 48635). They tend to swim away from its pursuer rather than enter its burrow (Ref. 1602). Solitary or in pairs (Ref. 9710), Monogamous and always in home-ranging pairs, that is they do not defend an exclusive territory (Refs. 52884, 37816). Maximum depth from Ref. 027115.
