Blue fin damsel
Paraglyphidodon melas
The Blue fin Damselfish is a great fish for beginners as it is hardy. Best kept individually, or in larger numbers in a big aquarium, its tank mates should be on the aggressive side to stop any potential bullying.
The Blue fin Damselfish requires a tank of 200 litres or larger with plenty of hiding places. The blue fin can be a threat to soft corals and some invertebrates. They usually adapt well to frozen and even dried foods, but should be supplemented with meaty foods like brine shrimp and crustacean flesh.
Approximate Purchase Size: Medium 2cm - 4cm
