Blue Reef Chromis are small, brilliantly coloured shoaling fish that should be kept in groups of 6 or more. In the wild, this peaceful species congregates in large shoals, hovering just a few inches above coral heads, where they can quickly dart for cover if danger approaches. In an aquarium situation, they must be provided with a reef environment with plenty of nooks and crannies amongst the rockwork. Tankmates should be of a peaceable nature, as unlike many other members of the damselfish family, these remain a quiet species into adulthood. The tank should be well mature before adding Blue Reef Chromis, and the entire group, will, ideally, be added simultaneously.
Feeding
Offer a varied diet consisting of small frozen foods such as Spirulina-enriched brineshrimp, Mysis shrimp and finely chopped krill, plus marine flake food and herbivore rations. Feed small amounts 3 times per day. Enriching your frozen foods with liquid vitamin products prior to feeding will help your fish to retain their bright colours.
