Neon Damselfish Information
Neon Damselfish (Pomacentrus alleni) is a vibrant species of Damselfish that displays neon blue, green, and yellowish/orange colors. Although they are considered to be a species that is easy to maintain in the aquarium, however, they only show their full spectrum of color when they are satisfied with the conditions of the tank and their tankmates. Neon Damselfish's colors appear dull when conditions in the water aren't ideal or they're getting spooked by aggressive tankmates.
Although it is a Damselfish species, Neon Damsel is more like the Chromis species than the standard Damselfish species. They are docile and shouldn't have any issues coexisting peacefully with other reef species. A group of Neon Damselfish is an ideal part of a reef or a FOWLR aquarium that has other calm to semi-aggressive tank companions.
Neon Damselfish Diet
Neon Damselfish is an omnivore. They must be a diverse diet that includes live, frozen, or freeze-dried, as well as high in vitamin content foods such as Mysis Shrimp, brine shrimp the cyclop-eeze, formula I and II. As well as other food items that are prepared, like Spirulina-based carnivore and herbivore pellets and flakes.
