Chromis. When i reefed 20 years ago I Got out before things got older and my 3 chromis back than we’re fine and dandy.
fast forward to now. I started with qt of 4 chromis. A splendid bunch no issues. 6 months later it seemed one went blind. Didn’t see my finger eventually starved to death I believe. 6 months later. (Today) the smallest of 3 would go nuts when food was introduced but always stayed in a weird spot in the tank. Stopped schooling with the others. Today it was in the top of the tank looked off. By dinner was crab dinner. Weird two left one larger and than of course the sidekick. So a long time ago I used to say on posts that oh my chromis don’t take each other out mine are model citizens. Can’t be. When I’m around they are like children acting all nice. But I’m guessing by 2023 I’m left with the winner the big guy and that will be it. Yup you guys are right. I tried they have the best environment best food etc but nature prevails.
