The damsel fish is one of the easiest fish to keep and thus an awesome recommendation for new marine hobbyists. These are safe for reef aquariums and stay small enough for most tanks. Provide ample amounts of decorations and live rock to allow this fish to hide and swim thru. It is difficult to differentiate between a male and female. Typically, the male is larger and will become aggressive towards the female when he is ready to mate. Like other damsels the male is responsible for the care of the eggs and will become very territorial while guarding his brood. Be careful with which tank mates you provide with this damsel because they are known to be territorial and aggressive. They have an adult size of only 3" and can be added in a group simultaneously. The Ternate Lemon Damsel has an iridescent coloration of greens and yellows. They are found in the Western Pacific inhabiting coral-rich areas of sheltered coastal reefs.

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.

I have 2 salmenese tiger fish and two smaller fish in approximately 3.5 L bowl. I bought them on 1 April. 3 act normal but one act abnormal from first day. One salmenese tiger fish doesn't move much first it stayed at bottom now it's gapping at surface and if I try to catch to check it it goes down again. It's fins are turning red or I don't know if it already was. I don't understand how to help. Parents are out town so I can't go to shop. I am not sure if all are eating food.
My betta is a baby boy (4monthold) When I first got him he was red with white. 2 months ago his growing fins began becoming blue. Abt 3 weeks ago I see that he began losing his color a bit& began becoming kind of transparent, so I took the water to get checked& the water was good but the store couldnt check for ammonia cause they had ran out of that test(water has conditioner). Last night I notice that he started getting a shiny silver color on 1side of mouth& in gill. But he is acting normal
Hi my male leopard gecko Leonardo has been getting dark kinda brown for a time then in few hours or the next day,he'll be bright yellow again! Whats going on? He also has a little spot on his tummy or inside I would describe it a a bruise but most definitely its compaction I really don't know what is that in their so two days ago i started giving him warm bath and rubbing the sides of his tummy. Do u have an idea of what going on? Pls help
We just tranferred Joey from a 40 Gallon Tank to a new 90+ Gallon Terrain... He seemed to be pretty happy till today. We noticed right before we changed tanks that he had some dark coloration on his left side and tip of his tail.. He was shedding at the time so we figured it was part of it.. It has yet to go away, and today he seems VERY active, mostly attempting to climb the glass of the tank. I have attached a photo, Thank You in advance! ~Robert~
Hello. My turtle has a red stain/mark along her "lip" on the left hand side. Tried cleaning it with a qtip but it didn't come off. This must have appeared within the last 2-3 days. She lives outside in a filtered and heated pond with my other (male) turtle and they sometimes fight over food, she also randomly bites hard things. I give them kale/spinach/fruit and they hunt slugs, snails and other insects. She's acting completely normal and feeding fine. Is this an injury or is it something else?
I cannot tell if my baby leapord gecko is a boy or a girl. I need assistance please :)!
I recently bought a pearl arrowana fish what care should I take
Two of our freshwater fish are acting oddly in the water. We did lose a few last night, due to an ammonia spike. We noticed some pale-colored, wormlike flesh dropping from the front area (between the mouth and front fins); this black Guppy is “wobbling” around... We also have an orange Molly fish that has been staying on the bottom, not eating or moving much. Attached are pics, for your review. Can you please provide advice for these issues, we want to try our best to save them!
Hi, i have some type of mites there white and theres loads i only noticed them because they went all over mh glass, iv cheak all tanks and so far only found on 3 of them they have only seem to have come since i got 2 new fat tails and more fresh libe food from 3 differenr shops but there are non on the fat tail tanks what could they be and what should i do
My year old has contracted either Ich or velvet. He is trying to scratch against his tank he has white patches but also when I've shined a light on him It also looks like he could have velvet. When I noticed his lethargy and his behavior I immediately transferred him into a smaller bowl to treat him with betafix (all I have until the pet shop opens covered his bowl to leave him in darkness His appetite is normal. He's bloated and is breathing but his gills I think are swollen. IDontWantHimToDie
Hi there. So I am looking into getting a heat dome for my crested gecko. I know they don’t have to have a heat lam but I want him to have a UVB bulb Because it’s good for them. But I am not quite sure that type to get. Any suggestions? I was looking at petco’s tropical combo pack. He lives in a 10 g. With live plant. (I will upgrade when he is bigger) also do you know an age on him? I got him 3 months ago from petsmart. I could tell he was a male a week after I got him. (Pic from yesterday)
