This is a double post. Someone will get to you. Just have patience. They need clean water, they like mysis and PE pellets. Their primary habit is fighting with everyone.

Basically all damsels are very easy to care for.

Generally, besides clowns and chromis, I never recommend any damsels outside of the genus Chrysiptera. Most damsels outside of that group are not good choices for our tanks, since they are some combo of big/mean/get ugly as they age. Pomacentrus (where the lemon belongs) has some species that aren't terrible, but I still would stay clear. I have not kept a lemon.

just wondering why he is pale yellow. I found a picture from live aquaria that looks just like him.

I don't understand. Just like who? You have a lemon damsel that looks like that?

They change a little as they age. They are basically the other end of the yellow/blue spectrum from the azure damselfish, and a little blue can show up on the fins.

he is very young and is slightly pale. Just wondering to color him up.

@DeniseAndy Keeps a pair of CB Lemon Damsels. I believe they’re a bit more aggressive than the Azures and Talbots but not overly.
