Damselfish are Jerks!!!

[Nick Rose]

I know I have seen post before but dang.... damselfish are jerks. I bought 4 Neopomacentrus azysron (correct me if I’m wrong) last year. Within a few months it was down to 3 and today it’s down to two. The last two are huge and territorial. Each one has each own side of the tank. The one that died today would get bullied every so often. One point, half the tail was gone but it grew back. But for some reason today it got beat up bad.

Sorry about your fish

They really are. Big personality in a little package

Sorry for your loss. Yep, they are jerks. Mine are really funny to watch though. One of mine hates me. I reach in the tank for one second and it will dart across 7ft to bite me. Attacks the tank when I am near too. Luckily, she is not quite as mean to the other fish. Too many to decide who to bully.

Ours is actually sweet. I know it's rare, but it loves my son! Rubs on him and watches him sleep.

What kind of damsel do you have?

Your fish is plotting against your son. Luring him in....
Keep and eye on that one.

You just have to pick the right damsels. Chrysiptera is the genus you want.

Mine is the wimpiest fish in my tank.
