Description
Habitat
Found mostly on coral reefs and reef flats to at least 20 m depth.
Typically found in water with a depth of 0 to -2,845 meters (0 to -9,334 feet).[1]
Ecology:
This species is a small wrasse (up to 30 cm) characteristic of shallow
sandy and rubble
bottoms
around coral
reef areas
with a depth range
from 1-35 m.
It feeds
mainly on small crustaceans, molluscs
and echinoderms
(Westneat 2001). Juveniles
are secretive on inshore
reefs. Large
adults
swim
openly on reefs, singly or in small loose
aggregations
(Kuiter and Tonozuka 2001). There are no demographic
data
available.
Spawning occurs in small groups in reef passes (Colin and Bell 1991).
[2].

Biology
Diet
Feeds mainly on small crustaceans, mollusks and echinoderms (Ref. 9823).

Hemigymnus sexfasciatus is almost certainly a valid
Red Sea
endemic and sister species of H. fasciatus (Kuiter 2002).
Color differences are significant and consistent and Kuiter's color
photos make a convincing argument. H. sexfaciatus is not recognized
by Parenti and Randall (2000) (J.H. Choat pers. comm.
. 2008). A detailed
comparison of specimens and genetic material
is needed (R. Myers
pers. comm.
. 2008).[2].
