Guarding Eggs This Golden Damselfish - Amblyglyphidodon aureus is seen guarding her eggs which she has laid on the main branch of the Seafan corals.<br /> <br /> This is a different Damselfish from the previous post and both are seen around a hole/patch in a big seafan.

Guarding Eggs

This Golden Damselfish - Amblyglyphidodon aureus is seen guarding her eggs which she has laid on the main branch of the Seafan corals.

This is a different Damselfish from the previous post and both are seen around a hole/patch in a big seafan. Am wondering if the Damselfish 'made' the hole by plucking away the seafan to expose the bigger branch for them to deposit their eggs.
