Description
The Guam Damsel is a small, hardy marine fish native to the Western Pacific, often found in shallow coral reefs. It typically displays a silvery body with a yellow dorsal fin and tail. While robust and relatively easy to care for, it can be territorial, especially towards other damsels or similarly sized fish.
