I think the colour is the only difference.... But I'm not too sure. If its for cycling your tank, they both would work. And both school. Sorry I don't know more.

yes,ty. i just bought 1 at lfs. its an awesome blue color. i paid 15.00 for it. looks like him and my tomato clown are getting along just fine.. do you think i can add another one to my tank? its a 20 gallon hex w/ liverock and crushed coral. he is twice the size of my tomato clown. these are only 2 fish i have in the tank. if i add another will it be too much? what is best think to feed these fish? lfs said flake food is fine but what else can i feed them thats cheap and easy?

both blue and green chromis can be from the carib. In the wild they can both grow up to 4 inches. The main difference is where they live. The green chromis is an open water fish that likes to live in mid water, while the blue chromis on the other hand seldom goes more than a few feet above the reef. Both tend to live in huge schools sometimes numbering in the hundreds Other than that. . . . i think the blues look better. IMO.

If you put a mix of green and blue chromis in will they school together?
