Looking for Exotic Damsels.

[HighDefAquaria]

I recently developed an interest in collecting damselfish and would like to add a few different species to my aquarium. I currently keep a Blue Fiji Devil and am considering adding a Princess and Starki damsel. Are there other colorful, less common, or higher-end damselfish species you would recommend?

I added a pair of scissortails a few months ago. Got them at petco for $10 each. I seem to see a better selection of less common ones there than at any of my lfs. Nice addition. They kind of hang out together and groups will school. I'd like to find a Red Honey if I can find one.

Yes, blackish with yellow in the fins and tail. Not sure about dart fish. Yes, they’re always out.

Yes, I am sure. If you found one that’s black and white vertically striped that’s the scissor tail Sargent.

That’s cool, never seen that before. I’ve had zebra barred dartfish.

My azure is very chill pretty little fish and my lemon that’s a bit of a butthead. I have another one in my sump that I’ve never been able to identify. It’s bluish gray with bright blue spot and grumpy eyebrows. Inherited him with a tear down I bought. He digs a lot so he’s a sump denizen now.

I've swam with them on reefs in schools of a hundred. I've got some coming but have not had them in my tank yet. I'm assuming they will school though.

The tank seems to confine them and make the fish crabby Would like to know what you see happen

I don't they arrive till after first of the year but ill keep you posted. Its big tank 72x30x36 so they should do all right. I like damsels I have quite a few in there and different species if you look at my build thread there's a list of them.
