Comparison of the mean (±SE) fast-start performance of three damselfish species, the Ambon damsel (Pomacentrus amboinensis; a–c), the whitetail damselfish (P. chrysurus; d–f) and the Ward’s damselfish (P. wardi; g–i) that had been kept in either water that had passed over live coral or degraded-dead coral, and then exposed to either clean seawater (SW) or conspecific alarm odours (AO) prior to a repeatable startle stimulus. Fast-start variables shown are: response distance (a,d,g), response speed (b,e,h) and maximum speed (c,f,i). N = 17–23. Letters above the bars in panels a–c represent Tukey’s means comparison groupings (only tests on significant interactions between factors are shown, p < 0.05).
