Care guide at a glance
Chromis margaritifer
Description
A chromis split sharply into black at the front and white at the rear. Hardy, peaceful and best kept in a group.
Feeding
Planktivore. Frozen mysis, enriched brine shrimp and quality marine pellets, twice daily.
Compatibility
Reef safe and peaceful. Keep in a group of six or more; in small numbers they reduce their own group until one remains.
Behaviour and personality
Shoals in open water above the rockwork, feeding from the water column.
Before you buy
The common mistake is buying three. Chromis whittle small groups down to a single fish, so buy six or more at once and give them open swimming space.
