Quick Stats

Description

The Neon Damsel is a stunning marine fish known for its brilliant electric blue body, complemented by yellow or orange accents on its tail and fins. Its bright colors make it a favorite among saltwater aquarium enthusiasts, as it adds a vivid pop of color to any setup.

While visually striking, the Neon Damsel can be aggressive, especially in smaller tanks or if it feels its territory is being encroached upon. This behavior makes it better suited for larger tanks where it has ample space to establish its domain. It is important to house it with other semi-aggressive or fast-moving fish that can handle its temperament.

Despite its aggression, the Neon Damsel is reef safe, meaning it will not harm corals or invertebrates, making it a suitable addition to reef aquariums. It is also a hardy species, making it a good choice for beginners who are just starting with saltwater tanks. Its diet consists of a variety of foods, including flakes, frozen foods, and small invertebrates.

The Neon Damsel is a resilient and eye-catching species, perfect for adding an intense splash of color to a marine tank, though some care should be taken when selecting tank mates due to its aggressive nature.
