Description
The Yellow Speckle Chromis (Chromis viridis) is a vibrant and visually striking marine fish that adds a lively touch to any aquarium. Characterized by its bright yellow body adorned with charming blue speckles, this species is a favorite among both novice and experienced aquarists. Its easy care requirements make it an ideal choice for those looking to enhance their underwater landscapes with color.
Hailing from the coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific, the Yellow Speckle Chromis exhibits a peaceful temperament, making it compatible with a variety of tank mates.

Providing plenty of swimming space and hiding spots is essential to ensure their well-being and minimize stress.
In terms of diet, the Yellow Speckle Chromis is an omnivore that enjoys a varied menu. A mix of high-quality flake food, pellets, and frozen or live foods like brine shrimp will help maintain its health and vibrant coloration. Regular feeding will encourage active swimming and playful behavior, making these fish delightful to observe in a well-maintained aquarium. With proper care and suitable conditions, the Yellow Speckle Chromis can flourish and become a lively addition to your marine setup.
