Found from intertidal to 10 m, on rocks (Refs. 289, 75835). Feed on a variety of algae and small invertebrates, especially crustaceans (Ref. 128661).

Life cycle and mating behavior Könsmognad | Reproduktion | Lek | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Polyplacophora are mostly gonochoric. Life cycle: Eggs hatch into lecitotrophic planktonic trocophore larvae (no veliger stage) which later metamorphose and settle on the bottom as young adults.
