Tamaño / Peso / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 14.0 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 9334); edad máxima reportada: 19 años (Ref. 52465)
Espinas dorsales (total): 12; Radios blandos dorsales (total): 14-16; Espinas anales 2; Radios blandos anales: 12 - 14. Usually with 16 dorsal spines and 12 gill rakers on the lower limb of the first arch (Ref. 7247).
Adults inhabit coral and rocky inshore reefs (Ref. 9334). Omnivorous (Ref. 9334). 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).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Madurez | Reproducción | Puesta | Huevos | Fecundidad | Larva
Oviparous, distinct pairing during breeding (Ref. 205). Males guard and aerate the eggs (Ref. 205). Nests are built in holes under rocks, however, the cavity is first sandblasted thoroughly (Ref. 26281). Eggs are sometimes attached to vertical rock surface in captive fish (Ref. 39475).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 22.3 - 28.7, mean 25.6 °C (based on 147 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
