Good information. I've never attempted to keep them or Dottybacks because of their reputation.

I saw a Garabaldi damsel at a LFS grow from a tiny little thing to about 4" quickly. It didn't sell for a long time but was quite expensive. It was a beautiful fish - it lost some brightness as it grew but was still impressive. I would definitely give them a try when I get a big tank.
