Les poissons marins
The Pomacentridae family includes colorful marine fish, commonly known as damselfish, primarily found in tropical coral reefs around the world. These small fish are notable for their strong territorial behavior, especially when defending their breeding areas or food sources. Crucial for maintaining reef balance, they are also highly valued in aquariums for their vibrant colors and hardiness
