👉Chromis viridis (green chromis) is a species of damselfish.
👉Individuals tend to be iridescent apple-green and light blue, and reach a maximal length of 10 cm.
👉It is sometimes called the "blue-green chromis", but that may also refer to Chromis caerulea, the blue puller, a close relative that is sometimes considered conspecific.
👉Adults of this species can grow up to 10 centimetres (3.9 in) at maximum length.
👉They have 12 dorsal rays, 9 to 11 soft dorsal rays, 2 anal spines, and 9 to 11 anal soft rays on their fins.
👉It is a blue green fish. When they are breeding, males turn more yellowish.
👉Chromis viridis schools in aggregations around Acropora coral heads.
