Lives in reef habitats from shallow coastal slopes to outer reef lagoons and slopes below drop-offs to 50 meters, among rubble (Ref. 48637). Occurs in pairs and its burrow may be in coral rock or sand. Monogamous (Ref. 52884). They tend to form large, though diffuse, colonies; may be due to a propensity to aggregate or may be a result of the ecological requirements for the species (for which type of substratum, current pattern, and water depth among the most important) which restrict the areas of settlement of the postlarvae.
