Springeri Damselfish: A Brilliant and Active Flash of Blue

The Springeri Damselfish (Chrysiptera springeri) also known as the Blue Sapphire Damselfish is a small but vibrant species that adds an incredible flash of electric blue to any marine aquarium. Unlike many other damselfish, this species is completely blue, with no additional markings, giving it a pure and brilliant look. Known for its exceptional hardiness and active personality, the Blue Sapphire Damselfish is an excellent choice for beginner and experienced hobbyists alike. It loves to dart in and out of rockwork, providing constant movement and a lively energy to your tank.

Why the Blue Sapphire Damselfish is a Great Choice:

• Brilliant Color: Its stunning, solid blue coloration makes it a showstopper despite its small size.
• Exceptional Hardiness: This species is incredibly resilient and easy to care for, making it a perfect first fish for a new tank.
• Active and Engaging: Its constant movement and foraging behavior add a sense of energy and life to your rockwork.
• Reef-Safe: The Blue Sapphire Damselfish is a great candidate for most reef tanks and will not harm corals or invertebrates.

Important Note: Like most damselfish, this species can be territorial. It is best to introduce it into a tank with a well-established aquascape to give it a place to hide and claim as its own.
