Cute Habitants of Gorgonian Corals.

This video clip captures the serene beauty of a school of Blue Chromis fish swimming amidst the delicate branches of soft corals in the clear Bahamian waters. The Blue Chromis, with their vibrant blue coloring, dart back and forth through the coral's intricate structures, creating a dynamic scene. The sunlight filters through the water, casting a dappled light on the seafloor and illuminating the striking contrast between the fish's vivid blue and the corals' subtle hues.

The Blue Chromis, Chromis cyanea, are a common sight in the tropical waters of the Bahamas. They are often found in large schools around coral reefs, where they feed on plankton and small invertebrates. These fish prefer the upper levels of the reef where the water is well-oxygenated, and they can often be seen at depths ranging from just below the surface to about 60 feet. Gorgonian corals, also known as sea whips or sea fans, are soft corals that branch off into tree-like structures and are prevalent in this region. They provide habitat and feeding grounds for many species, including the Blue Chromis.
