damsel

Saw this on my damsel this morning… impossible to catch the fish so far ☹️. Can anyone tell me what type of pest it is and if it’s going to come off on its own?

#reefmedic The damsel isn't eating, and it's got this red blotch on the caudal fin. Spends some time swimming, then hides again. Before putting it in the QT yesterday, I ran it though Safety stop (formalin, and methylene blue in two diffirent baths). QT tank is newly cycled but two seachem...

Have you guys come across this kind of three stripe damsel? Cought this fish today and was wandering if this is a hybrid?

I didn't know I had these until recently. I just got back from a 3-week vacation and now I see these Isos in the early morning whilst the room is still dark, before they unlatch from the fish. (They only latch onto my sailfin tang and two tomato clownfish). They leave my group of 5 blue damsels...

So my wife and I dont agree on whos eggs these are. Regal damsel or maroon clown? These are the best pics I can get. The fish have cleared the bottom of substrate.

Hey guys I want to get a school of lyretail anthias but people are saying they’re a handful. Should I consider a school of yellow tail or blue devil damsels instead or will that not work? Also why are the anthias a lot of work?

I have a handful of Regal Demoiselle’s in QT with a firefish. In the past week or two we’ve noticed that one of them seems to be consistently white on a band around the fish just before the tail. The rest of the fish color is a little less black too. He hides a little more than the other fish...

I’m getting out of salt and back into freshwater. I have some livestock for sale then I will put up some equipment. Local pickup only (I live in West Knoxville). I have the following for sale: 2.5-3” a yellow Tang- $200 4-damsel fish (three black and white and one yellowtail) all get along-...

Hey All! Super new to the hobby. Just “inherited” a 120 gal tank + fish from a friend who was moving. I’m looking for tips and advice as to how I can make the tank better. It’s a 120 gallon tank running on a fluval FX4 filter, eheim jager thermostat heater, 2 AI prime lights and 2...

Hello Everyone, I want to get a Blue Damselfish because of their beautiful blue color, and would like to know if in your experience from what you have kept/seen at your local stores, there was any types of blue damsels that had a brighter/more intense blue color than the rest. From the...

Hi like in my title, my new green chromis are showing sign of what I have gathered is uronema. I'm currently treating the tank with Rally/Kick Ick "kick ick as I'm also quarantining/pre treating these fish". I also just started treating with Maracyn Oxy to help with the open sores, and added...

The current setup is a 75G tank with a corner overflow with a wet dry sump modified for a refugium area. Eshops skimmer, gyre pumps and Aqueon return pump. Current tank stock includes Tomini Tang, 2 damsels, 3 oscellaris clownfish, serpent starts, Harlequin Basslet, soft corals and mini carpet...

I just added two brand new species to our site and an old favorite! First we have the lyretail damselfish, these are actually very cool damsels that like to school in the mid level of the reef tank. The black and yellow pattern really stands out in a reef tank so much so that I put a school of...

Saw this guy in my LFS without a label, and I really like his coloring. I'm guessing it's a chromis based on the body, anyone know?

Hi, I am currently cycling my 75g tank with a fish in cycle. I have 2 clowns and 2 Kupang Damsels in there and am wondering what is the best way to feed them without causing a major ammonia spike from over feeding. I currently have frozen mysis shrimp and marine s pellets from hikari. I was...

Hey all! This is my first ever post here, but I’ll just get straight to the point. My current tank is a 25 gallon lagoon that is home to a fire fish a few more fish that aren’t really to important to the topic. I’ve seen many people say that the sapphire damsel isn’t aggressive at all, so would...

Hi everyone! Been lurking around for a few months and today I decided to join. I had a 20g LPS/Softie tank a couple years ago that I had to break down not having enough time to maintain and appreciate it. I’m getting back into reefing with a 8g cube (12’*12’*13.8’H) running just a large HOB...

I will post photos, updates, and progress as the tank evolves. Here is an overview of the tank as it is now. *May 2020* Our goal is to have a colorful, lively, symbiotic ecosystem. We have stayed towards more peaceful fish species and they all get along so far. So we've had our tank since...

my Springer Damsel (Chrysiptera springeri)

Hey everyone I was at the LFS the other day and some Talbots Damsels really caught my eye. I love their coloration! Are they like other damsels, extremely aggressive or are they a more peaceful one that can be kept in a community reef?

I recently bought a damselfish from petco under the dubious label "assorted damsel". I think it's a female because if the clear fins, and it has no yellow whatsoever. I'm thinking either a yellowtail or fijian blue devil. I need help :(

I recently started up a Fluval Evo 13.5g nano tank with my partner. One of the fishes she really wants is a blue damselfish. She seems to like the Starcki damsel the most, but I am a bit wary because even though they are supposedly more peaceful than most damsels, I have heard they tend to get...

I have a 100 gallon tank with several small tangs, a rabbitfish, a pair of leopard wrasses, two clowns, a canary blenny, and a pearly jawfish. there is a ton of live rock and places to hide. My tank has been stable with these fish for about 3 months now and I am thinking about introducing a...
