Ambon Damsel

Found singly pairs or in small schools, over sheltered sandy areas, close to coral and rocky outcrops in all areas of the reef.

Damselfish are egg layers.
First they clear a site ready for a nest, then engage in a mating dance with rapid swimming and fin movements, during this time the males will often turn a shade or two darker and may display white blotches. Spawning occurs at dawn.
