Field Notes

Habitat:

Taken at Reef HQ, Townsville, QLD, Australia.

Notes:

Chromis is a genus of fish in the family Pomacentridae. While the term Damselfish describes a group of marine fish larger than just one genus, most damselfish are in the genus Chromis. These fish are popular aquarium pets due to their small size, tolerance for poor water quality, and bright colors.
