You were better off looking at the rocks and sand... You will grow to hate that fish if you dont get it out.

I had two that were fine for a year, then became terrors. I had to tear my tank apart to get them because they killed an orange shoulder and tenneti tang, as well as I think took out a powder blue a few weeks before this incident, but can't be a hundred percent on that one fish. Then when I went to get them out, I had to take all my rock and put it to one side, put a piece of acrylic down the center, and fish them out... And this is when my new powder blue had a heart attack. Those two damsels ended up costing me ALOT of money!

All THAT! for those dang damsels! I am getting worked up just thinking about how awful those fish were.

when the tank cycles out you could always get a molly and aclimate him to salt water. their nice and cheaper than any damsel. i've also heard that they eat hair algea which is always a plus to a new tank

damels are like mollies. only really good for cycling a new tank. remove it when the tankc cycked. damsels will pick on almost anything.

theyre like the kenyii cichlid of the salt world
