I cant beleive I have not seen the Damsel...."They are a cheap fish that will help cycle your tank."- Every LFS owner.

True. So many damsels have bad attitudes. I have 3 Springer's damsels that are great though. They're a mild mannered damsel that doesn't bother much. They live with an algae blenny and a pair of ocellaris clowns. Never had any problems with them. Now something like sergeant majors, I've had them attack me in the Bahamas while I was snorkeling. Those things are nuts. I've seem them sell for $10 each at LFS. They'll intimidate fish 4 times their size.

sixlines can be vicious. Mine used to think he owned the whole tank, terrorized my poor chalk basslet. Luckily I knew a guy with a nano that only planned on one fish. Now he does own a whole tank.
