Found in subtidal areas (Ref. 86439) on shallow protected reef environments, e.g., lagoons (Ref. 846). Dominates large areas of lagoon in shallow and intermediate depths (Ref. 269). Has high bleaching level and high estimated mortality in Palau (Ref. 66144).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae
Hermaphroditic (Ref. 113712). 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 (Ref. 833)
