Neon Damsel

The Neon Damselfish is also known as Allens Damselfish and the Allens Pomacentrus. It was named after Dr. Gerald Allen, the icthyologist who is recognized as the worlds authority on damselfishes.

This slender fish is neon blue with a blending of yellow near the bottom of the body down into the anal fin. Pomacentrus coelestis, which is similar in appearance, may also be called the Neon Damselfsih.

It is a semi-aggressive fish that requires hiding places in a 50 litre or larger aquarium.

The Neon Damselfish diet should include a variety of meaty foods, herbivore preparations, and flaked foods.
