blue reef chromis

how big do blue reef chromis get???

 

[toddpolish]

I dont think that they get that big. maybe a couple inches. not for sure though

 

[krishj39]

Some say 3", but I've never seen one over 2" So I'd guess that 2 is the normal, with 3 being the exception.

Are scarlet crabs bigger than blue hermit crabs? Or should I waste my money on anemomes?

 

[steelchromis]

I recommend getting scarlet hermits, they are much calmer than bluelegs. As for an anemone, don't get one, they don't survive long in the home aquarium and if they die, can pollute your tank with toxins.

I have 7 Blue-Green Chromis. They are all over 3" so I guess they get at least that big

 

[balashark21]

[bang guy]

Definately not perfect. natural perhaps... not picture perfect though.

yes they can pollute your tank, but cant agree with not surviving long in the home aquarium.

They dont survive long because loads of people have clowns and most of them want them to host in something and probably an anemone but anemones need stable parametres and very strong light like Metals.
BTW, Bang Guy what kind of algea is this at the background? Cover everywhere or get long?

It's Halimeda. It just gets long. The downside is that it sucks Calcium out of the water faster than a clam.
