Aquarium Advice FINatic
I've been looking for a schooling fish for my new tank and wanted something that was affordable. No $300 6 fish schools is what I mean. I've known chromis are hardy, schooling fish, but none of the pictures I'd ever seen made them real desireable to me. Was at the lfs and they had a dozen hungry little guys in a tank. Had a bit of fun watching them chase my finger back and forth on the tank. I wasn't real impressed with the looks as they were just little silver guys with hardly any coloring. But the price was right and the movement fit what I wanted. So I picked up 6 and put them in qt. The next day I actually lit the tank to make sure they were doing ok and was pretty amazed at the coloration on them. Very interesting how they flash from plain silver to bright green/blue/purple as they move, which they never stop doing.
I know, I'm a dork but anyone looking for similar movement, but like me, unimpressed with the photos should take a look at them under decent lighting.
