The aquacultured Black Cap Damsel is a great option for the beginner hobbyist. This beautiful fish can handle subpar water parameters and will adapt to aquarium settings very easily. Damsels are considered to be an aggressive fish; however, the Black Cap is considered to be mild compared to others. A small group can be added to an aquarium as long as it is large enough. Provide an environment with plenty of hiding places and swim throughs. It is very difficult to differentiate between males and females, but like most damsels the male will become very aggressive towards the female when they are ready to mate. Provide a varied diet of marine frozen foods and pellets for continued health.

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
