Blue/Green Chromis breeding

Warnberg · 02-01-2007, 01:55 PM

Has anyone successfully bread chromis? Does anyone know where I can get more info on this? I know chromis have been known to breed in captivity I'm just researching on how to raise the fry.

Thanks

I found this site which references them being similar to clownfish breeding:

I'll bet there's plenty of info out there on raising clown fry - if nothing else, then this book is an excellent one!

Blue green chromis are pretty hardy, but it's kinda weird that it's hard to get them to breed. I suppose that maybe the reason might be that the fry are more sensitive to water parameters? Anyone have any input on that idea?

Take care
