Brighteye Damselfish

Found singly close to the shelter of small holes in coral and rock outcrops, or in sea urchin furrows, over surge zones of fringe reefs.

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.
