About Cloudy Damsel

General information

The young Cloudy Damsel often lives in a communal relationship with anemones. As they mature, however, they will abandon the anemone and shifts to corals. We suggest keeping a few live rocks and caves or a coral of their own, or it might end up in fighting with other damselfish species for its niche. The Cloudy Damsel is mostly found in the Indo-Pacific region and can be fed with all kinds of live, frozen and flake foods and algae. The Cloudy Damsel is aggressive in nature and hence becomes territorial as it grows older. Their aggressive nature becomes destructive sometimes. It looks great in groups when it moves in a shoaling manner. There is no distinctive feature differentiating males and females, but they have been successfully spawned in the aquarium. In this species, the males are responsible for looking after the eggs.
