Flatworms

I stopped by my LFS today and it has post-its on the tanks with info when the fish was bought etc. I noticed that the one for a Springer damsel said it eats flatworms- at first I thought that it meant that that was all it ate- I have a Springer for years and it eats anything- got home and did a search and found that many damsels eat flatworms- maybe why I don't have any- I have 4 damsesl- a pink and a Kupang( or fiji devil) a Springer and a Talbot- all get along fine- I really like the Springer and Talbot- both have their space- the Talbot is at the bottom of the tank and the spinger is near the top- don't much wander away and the Kupang leaves them alone- both are small fish- under 2 " and are supposed to be good for frag tanks

I usually kept a springer in each tank just incase. Excellent fish and they never bother anyone.

Talbot is the only damsel I like.
What I like about Talbots and Springers is that they aren't aggressive or get too large- under 2" and that you can have more than one in a tank, as long as you add them at the same time normally- my LFS has a Springer in a tank for close to 2 months, Thinking about picking it up and adding it to my 75g hoping that it will hook up my other one- otherwise is goes to the 13g or gets rehomed
