    My wife wants some Chromis for our BC29. I already have a Saddleback clown, and a Bi-Color Blenny. I realize Chromis are supposed to be kept in schools. Can I possibly put 3 or 4 Chromis in sine they have small bio-loads?

    Hey cloob, a good rule of thumb when stocking your tank is 1in. of fish per every 4/5 gal.s of water, so in your case, im assuming that your tank is 29 gal.s, you should have anywhere from 5.5 to 7.25 inches of fish. hope this helps. Luna
