Curacao Deepwater Chromis

Anyone ever had one? or heard of them?

Seen them online but never in person.

I think they look so cool but they are quite spendy

I received one from Kevin Kohen a couple years ago. Very cool little chromis. I have only seen maybe a dozen or so for sale over the years. Very deep water fish coming only from Curacao. I kept in a dimly lit deepwater display with other relatively shy fish and had very good success. Would definitely recommend if you can find them. I usually see them go for around $100. Kevin and Digiman from Singapore both have successfully kept this fish and have video's showing its behavior and unique coloration.

Do you still have the chromis?

I just bought one and received it a couple days ago from Live Aquaria. Yes it was expensive but he is doing awesome and is so cool. He is only about a inch. Here is a couple pics

How much are they going for?

 

[Stew18]

It kills me to say it but I bought it from the Divers Den on Live Aquaria for 129

but it came very health and was eating the same day
