    Migration
    Oceanodromous. Migrating within oceans typically between spawning and different feeding areas, as tunas do. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.

    Trophic Strategy
    Inhabits coastal waters , and sandy areas . Abundant in shallow water and often caught at the surf-line or in rock pools . Larger, solitary fish sometimes enter brackish mangrove areas . Juveniles in estuaries move into deeper water with growth . Feeds on benthic invertebrates, mainly mollusks ; also on crabs and worms and aquatic macrophytes .
