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 more aggressive as the get older. We already have a coral croucher and an exquisite firefish, and I was afraid of the firefish being stressed out to death (if not now, maybe later down the line) if we got the Starcki. I am confident they are compatible with each other, but not sure about the compatibility in a tank this small. Just wanted everyone else's two cent on this, especially from those who own this damsel.

I think it is a no go with the damsel. I do not really believe they get worse with age but the small tank size I believe this fish could be a problem from the start. I think they also get too big for that tank. I have had a starcki damsel for about 3 years now, but it is in a large tank so not comparable to your situation.
