Looked and acted like a juvenile damselfish - didn't want his pitcher took. Just northwest of the "mirror" wreck at the Blue Heron Bridge in late February. Inch and a half or so long. Went all through this page with no luck. . . Family Photo Thumbnail Loved the pretty shades of blue.

Hadn't known that anemone fish were considered damsels.

Hmmm, just guesses here. From the Damsels I know (and I think it is a Damsel) it looks like a very dark very small Bicolor. However it also looks close to an adult Black and Yellow Damsel Stegastes pictus but it would be out of range and I have no pictures of what juvi's of that species look like.

Yep. I see the resemblance to the Black and Yellow. Thanks.
