Blackcap basslets

[lolly1]

Hello,
I tried posting this in the Fish Discussion forum, but no one has replied. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with blackcap basslets. I am very interested in getting one as SWF.com claims they are easy to keep and peaceful. Right now in my 55 gal I have 2 false percs, 3 blue/green chromis, and various inverts. I am looking for hardy fish with lots of color. Is this a good choice?

They'll tend to be bullies of sorts... sometimes you luck out and get the scaredy-fish, and they're fine... others, you'll end up with the likes of jaws... minus the teeth... they can be territorial, as can be the percs when putting in new species... I'm more worried of it chasing the chromis... my $.02

They're such beautiful fish. Most likely the next fish I will add to my 65.
It currently has 2 onyx clowns, 6-line wrasse, 1 bg chromis, and a banghai cardinal.
Tough to find at good prices sometimes.

Thanks for the input. Are they pretty hardy? I seem to have difficulty with "above beginner level" fish...
