I have a trio of azures. And a bunch of other peaceful fish.

The azures are like the 3 stooges amongst themselves.

They are sure to let all newcomers know where there territory is, albeit small.

A great community fish that is colorful and active.

This was Sparky the Starcki Damsel. My friend Dennis was nice enough to adopt him when I was forced to break down my tank. I got him from Live Aquaria and had him for 4 years.
He was the boss of the tank! Right under the purple tang;Hilarious

Very nice! I had three get some kind of disease in QT (after being disrespected by UPS), but yours look great.

Thanks. They are great fish so far, pretty, peaceful and outgoing. I was going to hold them out of DT until later in the stocking process, but after time in this qt with very timid tankmates I may transfer them earlier.

A lfs has two more, I may go pick them up.

This is the best pic I have currently. I got this trio from Divers Den last week. They are Lemon Damsels. I was hoping they might be less aggressive than the various blue species that seem to be uniformly evil. Hopefully since they came as a trio they are not going to kill each other!? They are in my QT now with a foxface. I'll try to get a better pic. They are really pretty.

How are they doing now? I'm ready to stock my 50G and am seriously considering a pair or trio of the lemon damsels.

I have 9 4stripe in my qt that will go into my carpet anemone tank with about 5 clowns. Then I have 8 azure (kupang) (one passed away 12hrs after arriving) to go into my 210g along with 3 talbots, and 3 tuxedo. Cannot wait since I have been fallow almost 4 months now.
I had 1 kupang in my frag tank and such for many years and no issues. I also got more along with lemons in my 210g till "the incident", we do not speak of it.
Now I am starting over and I think this combination will be fun. Lots of areas and hidey holes for them all.
