Chalk Bass are small, beginner-friendly fish from the Caribbean featuring orange bodies with purple mid-sections and striking electric blue vertical bands. They thrive in 30-gallon tanks with plenty of live rock and won't bother corals or other fish, making them excellent for reef aquariums. Multiple specimens can coexist if added together.
