Please ID this damesl pair Friday, May 11, 2012 12:11 AM (permalink) 0 Took this pair from a friend and they are in my 120g reef right now. He had them for 3years. They laid eggs in the flowerpot. Pics of the male. Flash on so this is not the real color of the fish. They use to have more metallic blue and yellow on their body:       The pair:   Day 1. They are very very tiny.       #1 Umm_fish?

I don't have a lot of knowledge on damsels, but I can suggest this:   http://www.amazon.com/Damselfishes-Anemonefishes-Fishes-Scott-Michael/dp/1890087971/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336750383&sr=8-1   You might get lucky: My LFS keeps this around and lets people use it for reference. --Andy, the bucket man.

I think they are either Pomacentrus auriventris or Pomacentrus coelestis Did you watch the video of the pair?    #4 luis a m Total Posts : 451 Scores: 2 Reward points : 1249 Joined: 3/15/2011 Location: Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, AR Status: offline MBI: 0 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:Breeding Unknown Damsel.
