Half and half chromis Profile

The Half and half chromis (Chromis iomelas) is a marine fish distinguished by its contrasting coloration, with the front half of its body being a deep black and the rear half a stark white or pale blue. It originates from the Western Pacific Ocean, including areas around Japan and the Philippines. Featuring a streamlined body typical of the Chromis genus, it grows to a moderate size suitable for home aquariums. Despite its striking appearance, the Half and half chromis is not especially well-known or common in the aquarium hobby, potentially due to its specific care requirements or limited availability.
