Dascyllus melanurus – Blacktail Damselfish
Dascyllus melanurus, commonly known as the blacktail damselfish, is a species native to the Western Pacific Ocean. It is distinguished by a silver-white oval body crossed by three wide black bands, the last of which completely covers the tail, giving it its name.
A schooling fish with hierarchical behavior
In its natural habitat, the Dascyllus melanurus thrives in groups structured around Acropora colonies, where it finds refuge and food. In an aquarium, it is essential to keep it in a group of at least 5 individuals to establish a stable hierarchy and limit internal aggression.
Territorial behavior and compatibility
This fish is robust, active, and sometimes territorial. It can coexist with other non-aggressive reef species, but relationships between multiple Dascyllus or similar species should be monitored. Tense intraspecific relationships should be avoided in small volumes.
Maintenance conditions
- Recommended minimum volume: 200 liters
- Temperature: 23°C to 28°C
- pH: 8.0 to 8.5
- Decor: coral colonies or rocks rich in hiding places
- Behavior: hierarchical, territorial, active
Feeding
- Chopped shrimp, mysis, artemia
- Fresh algae and plant-based foods
- Fish eggs, crabs, or frozen plankton
- Pellets for marine omnivores
The Dascyllus melanurus is omnivorous with a carnivorous tendency, it easily feeds on a variety of foods, whether they are live, frozen, or dry.
Why choose Dascyllus melanurus?
- Contrasting appearance with black bands on a silver background
- Lively, robust fish that is easy to feed
- Perfect for observing group behaviors
- Compatible with well-arranged community reefs
- Ideal for aquarists looking for an active fish
