Chromis - Aquarium Advice

dodgersfan25 · 10-03-2004, 01:21 PM

i was reading about the chromis and how they can be grouped together in schools, and that sounds so cool. i want to get a school of 6 Black Bars, but i also have 2 clowns. since they're both damsels, will they fight? they're both listed as one of the most peaceful fish though. any advice would be great!

dont know much about black bars, but i have a green with my false percs, and they're fine

When other fish were out they schooled for safty, but as they felt comfortable they spread out, when i fed they would come back together, so yes and no. in larger tanks they wont spread out as much.
