Chromis School

[loveless]

In my opinion chromis are not schooling fish like everyone seems to think. I went to fiji on vacation a couple ofyears ago and witnessed chromis in their natural environment. What I saw was alot of schools of chromis but they were small fish up to about 1 inch. As the fish grew larger I didnt see any schools at all. I did see the adults everywhere but in singles only. So I firmly believe that what we see as schooling habits are just a juvenile thing and as they age they turn into solitary fish.
