Solitary Islands Marine Park sweetlip ("Plectorhinchus gibbosus") occur with mulloway ("Argyrosomus japonicus"), snapper, red morwong ("Cheilodactylus fuscus"), silver trevally ("Pseudocaranx georgianus"), bream ("Acanthopagrus" spp.) and tarwhine ("Rhabdosargus sarba"). Marine turtles are common in the Park, with green turtle ("Chelonia mydas"), loggerhead turtle ("Caretta caretta"), hawksbill turtle ("Eretmochelys imbricata") and occasional sightings of leatherback turtles.

They primarily eat insects, but also consume arachnids, reptiles, amphibians, rodents, bats and small birds. The size of prey ranges from 0.001 g insects to 25 g
