Big-lip Damsel

Found singly or in small schools, sheltering in the branches of Acropora corals, over shallow, sheltered lagoons and coastal reefs.
They feed on the polyps of Acropora corals.

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.
