seeing all your posts. You have a lot of reading to do. Sorry newbie.


Damsels you will learn are the devil fish. Yes, they are fast fish that love to nip and take off. They are cheap for a reason. But your won't learn to you try for yourself. So go for it.

They are evil
They killed a clown of mine
you cant catch them
they bit the **** out of you when you put your hand in the tank
and in my opinion there ugly.

Come'on bulletsworld don't you love the damsels I gave you I'm glad your puffer and trigger are keeping them in line!

bv reefer put it this way, the damsels I had were so evil our mantis was afraid of them!!! Chromis are very peaceful and make much better tank mates

Yes, honestly our 2 devil damsels (3 striped) would take turns dive bomming our mantis and the mantis would run and hide under the rock. Our mantis is small about 2", is a g-smithi and only eats mysis.
