Usually on steep slopes or sides of boulders encrusted with invertebrates and algae (Ref. 13227). Eggs are hemispherical and covered with numerous sticky threads that anchor them in the algae on the nesting sites (Ref. 240). Larvae are planktonic which occur primarily in shallow, nearshore waters (Ref. 94114). Fricke, R. 1994 Tripterygiid fishes of Australia, New Zealand and the southwest Pacific Ocean (Teleostei).
