Green Chromis
Chromis viridis
A whole cloud of green chromis can vanish in a blink — at the first sign of danger the entire group dives down and hides among the coral branches, then floats back up when it is safe.

How to spot
A tiny, deep, flat-sided body with a forked tail. Look for the pale green-blue shimmer and the way hundreds of them hover together in one shining cloud above the coral.
True colors
Shimmery apple-green to light blue, so bright it seems to glow underwater. When a male is ready to mate, his body can flash to a yellowish color with dark fins.
