I was thinking about a barrier reef chromis (chromis nitida), blue chromis (Chromis cyaneus), green chromis (Chromis viridis), and an orange line chromis (Acanthochromis polyacanthus). http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/s...mp;pCatId=1634 | |

I wouldn;t supect a problem other than you are at the upper limits of your tankas far as the number of fish. I only have two damsels in my 29 gallon anf I would go no more than three small fish maximum. I mixed the Caribbean Blues withe the Green no problem. | |

Good point J! I rate chromis at the low end of the aggressiveness scale of the damsel family, even less aggressive than clown fish, and have never had a bad experience with these fish. | |
