Chrysiptera caesifrons is the newest Pomacentrid species. What's most remarkable about the damselfish isn't its appearance or behavior but rather how wide its natural range is and that it has only now been described. by Leonard Ho | May 8, 2015 | Advanced Aquarist
A new research by the UM Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science finds that staghorn corals fed dried zooplankton were able to sustain normal growth at elevated temperatures and CO2.
