Hi ppl is this damsel fish.?.. bought today... THank you.

Not sure wat species but can confirm its damsel or Chromis. Suggest that you don't buy as it looks unhealthy. Look at its eyes.

dats a Dascyllus carneus aka cloudy damsel.

Yes, that looks like a real Dascyllus carneus (from east Africa and the western Indian Ocean to the Chagos Archipelago). There's another species usually considered a synonym of D. carneus (with a single stripe - should be called D. nigripinnis), from the Maldives and Sri Lanka east to the west coast of Malaysia and Bali. I have a manuscript sitting around on this, just need to polish it up for publication. I agree also that the fish in question doesn't look all that healthy - distended, cloudy eyes.
