Transform Your Tank with Living Color That Never Fades
Looking for effortless elegance in motion? The Blue Green Chromis (Chromis viridis) is one of the most visually rewarding species you can add to a saltwater aquarium — its iridescent teal-blue shimmer catches light from every angle, creating a rippling, jewel-toned effect that no synthetic décor can replicate. Best kept in groups, these schooling beauties create a dynamic, layered display that instantly elevates any reef tank from ordinary to extraordinary.
Reaching around 3–4 inches at full maturity, the Blue Green Chromis stays compact and proportionate even in moderately sized home aquarium setups. Their active, mid-water schooling behavior adds constant movement and energy to the aquascape, and their peaceful nature makes them outstanding tankmates for a wide range of marine life. For aquarists at any experience level, they deliver a high-impact, low-stress reward.

Fish Health
Our fish are selected with appearance, behavior, and feeding response in mind before being listed. We aim to offer healthy, alert specimens for established saltwater systems.
Compatibility
Please confirm this fish is compatible with your tank size, current livestock, temperament needs, and reef goals before ordering. If you are unsure, contact us before checkout and we’ll help you choose responsibly.
Shipping & Pickup
Livestock ships Monday through Wednesday. We confirm a delivery day with you before your order goes out, and we will hold it if the weather is bad or an animal needs more time in quarantine.
Free shipping is paused during the Vice Reef sale, through Nov 30. Florida addresses ship for $39.99. Free same-day Miami pickup is available at 46 NW 36th St and is usually ready in 1–2 hours.
Live Arrival Guarantee
Eligible livestock orders are covered by our Live Arrival Guarantee. Photograph the animal in its sealed bag before you open anything, then email that photo with your order number within two hours of delivery. Our team reviews every claim and gets you an answer within one business day. Failed delivery attempts, refused packages, or missed delivery windows may void coverage.
Acclimation
Acclimate fish carefully and introduce them into a stable, established saltwater aquarium. Match temperature and salinity slowly, keep lights low during introduction, and monitor behavior closely after release.
Photography
We photograph our fish in house to show their coloration and patterning as clearly as we can. Colors can look different under your own lights.
When a fish in our WYSIWYG collection has one in stock, the photo is the exact fish you receive. Other fish listings use a representative photo of the species and the quality you can expect. Every fish is carefully selected for health, coloration, and temperament before shipping.
Every fish is selected with color, behavior, and compatibility in mind. We focus on livestock that makes sense for real reef systems, not just impulse purchases.
If you have questions about temperament, tank size, or reef compatibility, contact us before ordering.
