    The blue devil is one of the most aggressive damsels and most likely will bully and fight with their own kind in captivity. They might also band together and attack larger, less aggressive species. The yellow-tail damsel would be a better choice, IMO; they tend to be peaceful with most everything, including conspecifics.

    I would say you're done adding fish.
