Data examining the effects of fertilizer addition on damselfish behavior from a before-after control impact (BACI) experiment conducted in Moorea, French Polynesia in order to understand the effects of nutrient pulse events on fish herbivory and agonism. The effects of treatments on behavior were assessed by video recording each territory with a GoPro Hero7 black for 20–30 min immediately before applying treatments (“Day 0”) and 14 days post-treatment (“Day 14”). We assessed: 1) grazing by dams...
