    We started off with 3 chromis, and about a month ago added 2 more. They're pretty much in a group all the time.

    Oddly enough they have taken the false percula (his friend carpet surfed) into their little chromis gang, and can be seen all hanging out together. I really need to get some photos of them!

    we started w/ 3 b/g chromis, but they kept beating on the smallest. Got 4 more till we had a total of 7, but they continued to bully the smallest til it died and moved on to the next smallest, and on and on. We only have 2 now, but they seem to get along just fine. Good luck!
