Inhabit deep, protected lagoons and channels, and the deeper parts of outer reef slopes. Juveniles are often solitary while adults occur in pairs (Refs. 1602, 48636, 9773). Plantivorous species that generally remain within a few meters of the reef. Juveniles may sometimes pick on parasites on the epidermis of other fish (Refs. 5503, 9773). Encountered singly (Also Ref. 129713), in pairs, or small groups, and usually swim close to the bottom (Ref. 54301). Forms schools when feeding.
