Beau Gregory Damsel (Stegastes leucostictus)

The Beau Gregory Damsel has stunning coloration that enhances the beauty of any aquarium. This fish naturally seeks shelter in crevices and holes when feeling threatened, so it’s beneficial to have an abundance of live rocks in their environment. While this species can display some aggression, providing it with individual hiding spaces can help mitigate this behavior. Its ease of care and compact size make it an excellent option for those new to aquarium keeping, fitting in well with reef setups and invertebrates. However, be mindful that its aggressive tendencies may increase as it grows, which could complicate introducing new species to the tank.

The Beau Gregory Damsel’s diet consists mainly of flaked and frozen foods, along with herbivore-specific feeds. To maintain harmony in a community aquarium, it’s advisable to house the Beau Gregory Damsel either alone or in pairs, as this helps to keep aggressive behavior in check.
