Electric blue head and most of body; yellow belly and fins, including tail. Captive-breeding of Azure Damselfish has been successful, but many wild-caught individuals are still sold in the aquarium trade. Using damselfishes to cycle new tanks is a cruel practice that causes needless suffering and death. Always cycle tanks using fishless methods.
