My new favourite fish!

I've been waiting donkey long time for this.

it's the tuxedo damselfish, aka Chrysiptera tricincta! Singapore's first debut appearance for the fish. i fell in love with it the first time i saw it in david saxby's tank.

for those who say it's a $3 damsel....well....pity. it's extroadinarily beautiful and peaceful. the fins are elegant and an overall very rare and gorgeous fish.

M3MORPH still have somemore for sale at $23 each.

[yikai]

i also bought 2 of these very beautiful and rare damsels from M3MORPH.

it's the "springeri" damsel.

the black and electric sapphire blue mottled appearance is super unique and very beautiful.

M3 still have 2 for $6 each.

i don't have photos of my own. hard to photograph, but these are from the net.

[yikai]

rare does not always mean expensive.

the above 2 damsels are one of the most uncommon in Singapore. although common in other parts of the world.

they are peaceful and will brighten up any reef tank.

and they are cheap!

[cool guy]

Nice bro... Hopefully can stil get e wrasse n damsel tomolo...

Good deal on the springeri.

Lemon are you still doing QT on your newly purchased fishes? If you do are you using the toyogo box or you've got a separate tank just for QT, pls share. Thx

[wilsontantw]

Cool. Peaceful damsel! Thanks for the recommendation lemon.

[Eniram]

Which one? The spingeri or e tuxedo damsel?

[wilsontantw]

The springeri bro. I like the electric blue. Super striking colours. But surely gone by the time I go. Haha.

[vinccc2009]

can it mix with my blue devil damsel?

[yikai]

to answer the questions above, yes springeri damsel is very peaceful.

don't really have time to update my tank thread via video.

SPS and corals are very healthy though.

but i did find this fish today. It's the yellow-masked angelfish that i've been waiting for, for 3 years. it's very very rare.

this is the 2nd piece that came after a long hiatus. the 1st piece came 3 weeks ago.

it's a female. the problem with them is their difficulty. not in feeding or cyanide issues, but in collection. they are deepwater and almost always arrive in bad condition such as decompression problems or sores and break-down issues.

this female is in pretty alright condition, except for a little damage on the ana| fin and the mouth has superficial damage. nothing i can do except hope that the condition improves and does not deteriorate.

it's extremely rare but very cheap and difficult.

fingers crossed.

[yikai]

i really do not know why the photos always appear side ways.

but you can still see it clearly. sorry for inconvenience.
