Introduction: The Yellow Tail Damsel is a vibrant and hardy saltwater fish, popular among both beginner and experienced aquarists. Its striking blue body and contrasting yellow tail make it a captivating addition to any aquarium. Â
Scientific Name: Chrysiptera parasema
Water Quality: Requires stable saltwater conditions with consistent temperature, salinity, and oxygen levels. Regular water testing is essential. Â
pH Level: Optimal pH range is 8.1 to 8.4.
GH Level: General Hardness should be moderate, around 8-12 dGH.
KH Level: Carbonate Hardness should be maintained between 8-12 dKH for stability.
Feeding: Omnivorous, feeding on a variety of prepared flake, pellet, and frozen foods. Offer a balanced diet including brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and algae-based foods. Â
Tank Mates: Generally peaceful, but can be territorial, especially towards other damsels. Suitable tank mates include similar sized and temperament fish like clownfish, gobies, and shrimp. Avoid aggressive fish.
Substrates and Tank Decorations: Prefers a live rock environment with plenty of hiding places. Sand or crushed coral can be used as substrate. Â
Suitable Plants: Not a plant-eating fish. However, hardy, low-maintenance corals can be kept with caution.
Sexing Breeding: Difficult to sex visually. Breeding in captivity is challenging and requires specialized conditions.
Maximum Size and Longevity: Reaches a maximum size of about 3 inches. Average lifespan in captivity is 5-8 years.
Behavior: Active and inquisitive fish. Known to establish territories and defend them. May nip at corals or other fish. Â
Things to Consider Before Buying: Requires a saltwater aquarium with appropriate water parameters. Research tank mate compatibility carefully. Be prepared for potential territorial behavior. Â
General Information: A relatively easy-to-care-for damselfish, making it a good choice for beginners. Regular water changes and maintenance are essential for optimal health. Â
A Fun Fact: Yellow Tail Damsels are often seen in pairs in the wild, displaying cooperative behavior.
