Bicolour Chromis are a smaller species of fish that’s perfect for reef tanks. These fish are primarily black with a white caudal peduncle and caudal fin. It is a member of the damselfish family and a shoaling species that should be kept in a group of 6 or more specimens that are introduced at the same time. They remain fairly peaceful throughout their lives, so tank mates should be of similar disposition. Larger, more dominant species like tangs and angels should be avoided as they may prevent the chromis from feeling secure, If the chromis are introduced, all other damselfish should also be avoided thereafter as the chromis will not tolerate the presence of one.
