    What size is your tank? those fish arent that big..So you could go with another smaller fish if your tank is big enough.

    Oh right you are! I didnt see that there.

    But a recommendation..You are pretty stocked in there..But if you could build a trap and catch the Damsel you could get another better looking fish if you could catch him. I dont like damsels, but maybe you do..Just my opinion.

    I hate damsels. I vote get rid of the damsel and replace it with something prettier. Mmmm. I would get a dottyback, specifically a royal one. That would put you with some nice color. :)

    What about banggai cardinals? I went to buy a couple yesterday but the store owner discouraged me. He said that they are very unpredictable and dye "for no reason". I like their looks though and I will get the tank raised ones.
