Default Blue Chromis

Just wondering if anyone knows where a guy can find a couple blue chromis in Edmonton? Also has anyone ever had blue chromis before? If so how do they get along with other fish?
Thanks,
Steve

They should be available in every possible LFS. They are most probably the most traded fish in this hobby (and the cheapest too). If you can't find any in an LFS, run away from there. JK But they should be available on regular basis

And as far as I know, they are one of the most docile inexpensive fish out there in the hobby (and also the ocean). And I heart that odd numbers always work best for them.

Great description of Green Chromis, however the Blue ones are a bit different...

If I am not mistaken the deep blue chomis are called Blue Reef Chomis. I had a couple a while ago, got them from Big Als in Calgary but I havnt seen any around in a long time.
