The
Blue Green Reef Chromis, sometimes called the Blue-Green Reeffish
or Blue Green Chromis, is found in schools throughout the Indo-Pacific
reefs and in the Red Sea.
It is a very hardy fish found in a variety of aquariums.
It is commonly kept long term, in small schools, and used by beginners
to learn the hobby. It may also be included in larger schools in
show tanks. It is a peaceful fish, and adds a dramatic effect to
the tank. The Blue Green Reef Chromis will live from 8-15 years
in an aquarium in water of good quality.
The diet should be varied and consist of meaty
items, herbivore flakes, and frozen preparations. Using vitamin-enriched
foods may help to preserve the bright color.
