Description
The Immaculate Damsel, also known as the Immaculate Chromis, is a schooling saltwater fish characterized by its silvery-grey body and often iridescent blue or yellow highlights on its fins, particularly the caudal fin. It is generally considered a peaceful addition to a reef aquarium, especially when kept in groups. This species primarily feeds on zooplankton in its natural habitat.
