Damsels?

[tigerlover]

I used damsels to cycle my tank and took them back: 1yt and 2 blue
I was wondering what types of damsels I could get in my community tank 1 from this list maybe?
blue
domino
spotted
yt
any that I haven't listed might be suggested too, thanks

Apparently all damsels can be aggressive, especially as they age.
Clowns and chromis are types of damsels.
Does Blue mean Blue Devil?
Domino - a proper meanie.
Spotted???
YT - maybe agressive

Go with the blue/green chromis, I have been very satisfied with mine. They are such fun schoolers. Perfect for a community tank.

I would choose the yellow tail at of the list he is the least agressive.

 

[steve40]

I very much disagree. The yellow tails set up their territories and become pretty darn territorial.

DO NOT GET YT.
When I perform water changes he approaches my hand and bites me!!! It is sort of funny but if he is not afraid then you can imagine what he will do to defend his territory....

I personally watched as a blue actively tormented and killed a yellow tail. Dominoe in my tank is very aggressive, too. Can't wait to restock! LFS sold to me for cycling. Pretty, but bad fish.

Can someone please look at my thread about mollies?

 

[timo]

[tigerlover]

How many do you have now?
I haven't had much luck with Chromis - lost about 5 altogether.
I would do a search on this site about them before buying any- just to see if others have had bad luck with them.

 

[ty_05_f]

well my yellowtail is pretty docile. He doesnt bite me at all. I read somewhere the yellowtail likes peaceful tankmates.

 

[carsgirlsnfish]

i traded them all after my tank was cycled. i never had problems with them. i think they do best if they are in a school so don't just get one.

3 or 4 Green Chromis would be fine. I always felt that striped damsels are the more aggressive.

 

[carsgirlsnfish]

yeah the stiped damsels are definitely some tough little dudes.
