Added a school of Acares Midget Reef Chromis to my 120-liter reef tank. They are active and colorful without causing stress to other inhabitants. The tank looks vibrant now, and they seem to enjoy the open swimming space. Only kept them in a group of five, which worked well.

These fish are easy to maintain and add a lot of visual interest. I kept them in a group of three and they stayed calm. They don’t bother corals or other fish, which is a relief. A bit territorial with their own kind, so I made sure to keep them in odd numbers.

Great addition to my reef aquarium. The color contrast is striking and they swim freely in the open areas. I included plenty of rock crevices for hiding, and they use them regularly. Very peaceful and not aggressive toward other species.
