This is something of curiosity to me. I wonder if Damsels that are of the same genus but are of different species mate with each other? Does this happen in the aquarium? And if anyone has seen in the wild or in an aquarium what their mixed offspring look like, I would be really really curious.
To give a couple examples of what I mean:
Yellowtails and Azures or any combo between the Chrysiptera damsels
Say C. Cyanea x C. Parasema / Hemicyanea or even C. Talboti / Starcki / Rollandi / Traceyi
Or for other genuses:
Say Allen’s and Neon Damsels.
Three / Four Stripe x Domino or Golden Domino Damsel.
Black Axil x C. Viridis
Say I have one C. Parasema and one C. Hemicyanea, or either one of these two with even a C. Cyanea. What are the chances that they’re willing to pair up and even cross breed?
