Some information about the Blue/Green Reef Chromis from my views and some from the internet.
Scientific name: (Chromis viridis)
Minimum tank size: 30 Gallon tank is what is recommended online. I would say go 10 gallons for these unless you get a group of them, then you would need a larger tank.
Food: Mine eat pellets and all foods I added to the tank.
Care/Compatibility: Easy, does not seem to need anything special. They do pick on the smaller chromis if kept in groups.
Reef Safe: So far I have not had any issues. I have mainly SPS corals, I do have a tube anemone. They seem to do like being in a group of one male and a few females
Other: Ok grouping fish, I like anthias better for grouping
Picture: This is an older picture of them mating. I will post more later.
