Bought a pair of Chromis a month ago that were about to die, the seller gave em to me for free and I took them. Brought em home and they were doing perfectly fine, eating well and being very active. Only issue here is that they got bullied by the other fish in the old tank and their scales were doing pretty bad.
Three weeks later, I bought another pair of Chromis hoping to have a shoal of 4 (yes it is recommended to have a group of 5 or + but I thought it would be fine since I already have a pair of Lyretail Anthias). They were perfectly fine for a week until today I noticed aggression between the two pairs but weirdly, it seems that the coloration between the two pairs are way different. One having characteristics that reminds me of the Blue Chromis and the other pair looking like the typical Blue Green Chromis. The “blue chromis” pair seems to way more aggresive but that could only just because of dominance in size...
Here is the “Blue Chromis”
Here you can tell that the “Blue Chromis” has a blue stripe over the mouth and a denser coloration of Blue on the tail and the upper fins than the normal Blue Green Chromis that is below here:
What do you guys think?
Maybe because of the location they were caught? Or because of the health... since the “Blue Chromis” were healthy when I picked them up compared to the Blue Green which were dying...
