Black-and-gold Chromis

Neoglyphidodon nigroris

Black-and-gold Chromis

Adults inhabit shallow coral reefs and lagoons, often holding a small territory around a protected reef structure. They feed on algae, tiny crustaceans, and plankton caught from the water column. Like many damselfishes, an adult can be notably assertive when driving intruders away from its chosen shelter.
