    I have had a blue damsel and a green chromis for quite some time now....I have a 55 gallon tank and also have a temporary Scooter Blennie When the pods are low the scooter goes back....I just added another chromis and the fight is on!! Will they settle up or is it a fight to the death? They are going at it pretty hard with a jaw locking show....Will they settle up or what??

    Yeah Ocean but I only have a 55 and dont to many fish....I really want to get a Banghii Cardinal....and a small Yellow tang but will trade him in when he gets big.....for me 4 inches is to much for a 55....I dont have what it takes to crowd then guys in....

    I think u can get away with 3-4 chromis,a bangii and a blue damsel thats not really over crowding as they are all small fish, plus that type of cardnial doesnt swim much, i have 2 in my 180 and they sit in the same spot in the water colum about 90% of the day

    Chromis are a schooling fish...We currently have 10 in our 150. They are cool to watch as they keep together throughout the day...8)
