Threespot Dascyllus Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Threespot Dascyllus in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: beginner
• Temperament: aggressive
• Diet: omnivore
• Minimum tank size: 30 gallons
• Compatibility: Can be kept with other aggressive or semi-aggressive fish of similar size. Not suitable for peaceful community tanks or with smaller, docile species. Only one Threespot Dascyllus should be kept per tank unless it is a very large system with ample hiding spots and territory for each individual.
• Special requirements: Requires plenty of live rock for hiding and establishing territory. A well-established tank with stable water parameters is crucial. Juveniles may host in anemones, but this behavior often ceases in adulthood or in the absence of suitable anemones. Provide a varied diet to ensure optimal health and coloration.
