Amblyglyphidodon aureus
Golden Damselfish - Amblyglyphidodon aureus, seen hanging out among huge Seafans. Pics#1 & #2 are of the same fish and Pic#3 is of a different one. Pic#3 shows the fish guarding her eggs laid on the branch of the Seafan. Am wondering if the Damselfishes made the hole in the seafan and then laid their eggs on the main branch of the seafan.

Thanks, @Marek :)
Awsome photos. Congratulations.
Thanks, @Daniele.
Yes, have seen them frequently but this time, I was taking time to try to compose the shots with the Damselfish in the 'hole' so was wondering if they are the ones that make the hole.
I have seen many times Damselfish depositing their eggs on other types of corals, but its usually the whip type of corals.
Fantastic composition Albert! Have you seen this type of holes often?
Thanks, @Antonio for your interesting comments :)
Wow Albert,this series is great,a Golden Damselfish at the window in his Resort in Sabah, Malaysia :-)
Congrats and thanks for sharing
