Found on shallow reef environments or sandy lagoons where colonies are often partly buried in sand (Ref. 847). Specifically found on sandy-scoured rocks and at the base of coral reefs (Ref. 102838). Found in environments with very high salinity and high temperature (Ref. 98471).

Life cycle and mating behavior Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae

Members of the class Anthozoa are either gonochoric or hermaphroditic. Mature gametes are shed into the coelenteron and spawned through the mouth. Life cycle: The zygote develops into a planktonic planula larva. Metamorphosis begins with early morphogenesis of tentacles, septa and pharynx before larval settlement on the aboral end.
