i was looking for some info about this fish. I was going to put 3 of them in a 75 gallon so they would school. I just am afraid that they will be agressive coming from the damsel category. I have had one person on this board tell me they are not very aggressive. Just wondering what experience people had with them.
thanks

I have had 4 over the last year or so and they are quite peaceful with other fish. They might fight a little with each other, dominance thing but otherwise very peaceful fish.

I have 7 in my 140 and I have to agree with what Thomas712 said. They mess with each other on occasion, but no one else. I think they great addition.

But even the dominance thing is fairly harmless with them. They chase. I have 3 and I have never seen them actually bite the others. Even though they are a damsel, they are a good community fish. They are not aggressive.

I have five and they are very peaceful. Looks real cool when you are drunk because they blur together and look like one big fish.
