The Jumbo Damselfishes

Bob Fenner
Intro:
Damselfishes are the quintessential aquarium fishes. In the wild they literally serve as 'feeders' for higher food chains; in captivity as starter, beginner and "fill in" fishes. For both they are feisty and frolicsome, earning their other common names of demoiselles and devils.
Within the more than three hundred described species of damsels (Family Pomacentridae) including the symbiotic clown anemone fishes, there is a very wide range of adaptability to aquarium conditions. Many of the shallow water reef varieties are quite pliable to captive care; being scrappy for their size, accepting any and all types of food and resisting poor water quality and diseases. -
