Care guide at a glance
Chrysiptera starcki
Description
A damsel in brilliant blue with a bright yellow back and tail, from deeper subtropical reefs. More peaceful than most damsels and considerably more attractive.
Feeding
Omnivorous. Marine flake, pellets and frozen mysis and brine shrimp.
Compatibility
Reef safe and among the more peaceful damsels, though still territorial with its own kind. Good in a mixed reef.
Behaviour and personality
Holds a small territory around rockwork. Bold but not the bully most damsels become.
Before you buy
Prefers slightly cooler water than tropical reef fish, coming from deeper subtropical reefs. One of the few damsels worth keeping in a peaceful community.
