Hi i was just curious, i want to know how large a green chromis can get. the reson for this is that i had come back to my tank and i had some green chromis in there and i had not seen them for a few months now witch was odd than i come look at my tank and i have 5 or 6 green chromis that really i didnt think were there.
i also have another question

I had the coolest flame hawkfish (Herbert), but every day I would come home to find another scarlet hermit crab and/or turbo snail dead, and half eaten (herbert was a very naughty fish). I was certain that I didn't not have a mantis shrimp lurking anywhere, so I finally took the flame hawkfish back to the pet store 3 weeks ago. Since then, no more carnage of half eaten crabs and snails.

flame hawks are very into crabs and snails .I have one they will acually jump up and down on a snail or hermit to knock it out if its shell .very intersting to watch.as adults they are known to eat smaller fish
