    I can't tell you if they are fine alone but I have a pair and don't think I would be happy with just one. This is one of mine. I think I am going to get the purple for my other tank

    I originally purchased 3, but now have 2. I can only assume the 3rd was killed, and the 2 have become a pair.
    1 seems to be out in the open more often then the other. I don't really see to much interaction between them.
    They are really cool fish, and make a great addition to a reef. You won't be disappointed with these cool little guys.

    Anyone want to see what one looks like dried up? Apparently mine WAS a jumper. Found it today behind the tank. He got out of the 2" tall hole, we cut in the back, for ventilation. what is up with that?:confused:

    I had one for well over a year. It disappeared last week.

    Now I know why my dogs are constantly sitting in front of the tank.
