Overview
The Tuxedo Damselfish is also known as the Threeband Damselfish and originates from the waters of Fiji. They are white in color with three prominent black bands running vertically within the body of the fish.
A 30 gallon or larger aquarium is suitable with plenty of hiding places. Due to its aggressive behavior as an adult, it will do well with other moderately aggressive fish in a community aquarium. It will not harm invertebrates or disturb the tank setting.
Offer the Tuxedo Damselfish a variety of foods including frozen brine and mysis shrimp, dried seaweed and flake foods.
