Depends on your test readings on ammonia. If you add a sump you could definitely add more fish, but your damsels may say no more tenants, they are very aggressive and territorial. Love your cocoa feather duster, I had the typical brown one lived for maybe a year never got another, what do you feed it?

yea i found out the hard way that damsels are a pain even after hearing about them on this website i still decided to get one and it has I'm assuming killed one of my fish he just wouldn't leave the poor thing alone and one morning it was dead. mind you last Tuesday i purchased the thing.
the cocoa is the toughest thing i have ever purchased i had a valentine puffer ( I didn't do my research first) and he completely tore the head of the thing off and didn't come out for about a week or two i thought it was a goner but the second i got rid of the puffer he started to come out it looked funny because he didn't have any feathers but they slowly came back that thing is a warrior. but as for feeding i have had him for maybe 4 or 5 months and haven't feed him a thing but i do feed my fish mysis and chopped clams with the occasional pellet or flake as a treat.
