Yellowtail Damselfish (Damsel Chrysiptera parasema)
Description:  Chrysiptera parasema is a hardy member of a saltwater aquarium. Because of this and its usually low price it is often recommended as a way for novice marine aquarium keepers to gain experience. Thirty gallons is typically quoted as the minimum tank size required to permanently house this fish. It is less aggressive than most damselfish but will sometimes harass more passive fish. Despite its comparatively peaceful nature it can be territorial with members of its own species. This aggression can sometimes be reduced by keeping them in groups of three to seven. They do show schooling behavior when kept in large groups.[1] Despite its hardy nature, it also must not be placed in an aquarium with larger predatory fish such as lionfish, and grouper which will often see it as a food source

Blue Chromis (Pomacentridae damselfishes)
Description:  Blue chromis (Chromis cyaneus) are from the Caribbean and the West Atlantic. They belong to the family Pomacentridae. They are part of a group of fishes commonly known as damselfishes. They are brightly colored, very active, small fish, reaching an adult size of only 4-5 inches or 10-13 cm. They are shoaling fish and so you should keep them in small groups of 6-8. A solitary chromis usually doesn't survive.

Amphiprion-clarkii_thumb
Yellowtail clownfish (Clown Fish Amphiprion clarkii)
Description:  Clark's anemonefish or the Yellowtail clownfish (Amphiprion clarkii) is a widely distributed clownfish. It is found in tropical waters, in lagoons and on outer reef slopes, from the Persian Gulf to Western Australia and throughout the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean as far as Melanesia and Micronesia, and as far north as Taiwan, southern Japan and the Ryukyu Islands. Clark's Anemonefish is a spectacularly colourful fish, with vivid black, white and yellow stripes, though the exact pattern shows considerable geographical variation. There are normally two white bands, one behind the eye and one above the anus. The tail fin may be white or yellow, but is always lighter than rest of the body.
