I've got a 29 gallon tank with a clownfish, yellowtail damsel and another damsel (black with one white stripe near it's head and a few blue stripes going the length of his body). ANYhow, we would like to add one more fish to complete our tank, provided that won't over crowd the tank. Will it be alright for one more small fish? Also, are there any suggestions on a good small fish for us to add? I'd like something bright or colorful...I was thinking a royal gramma (although we've got purple and yellow covered with the damsel). Any input would be greatly appreciated.
We've got a few pounds of live rock and a biowheel filter...all tank parameters have been steadily normal since we've had our fish in the tank.
And since I've got a thread open...does anyone know what kind of damsel the black one is? He's really cool looking, thye white stripe goes from his back to his belly (top to bottom), and his blue stripes are wavy and kind of reflective....they don't show up very well unless the lights are on.

Since you have other aggressive fish in the tank, I would go with a dottyback, I think they are such pretty fish, but are too aggressive for most of the tanks I have. And most of them stay small. My favorite is the bi-color pseudochromis

I also like the idea of a gramma or dottyback. Both of those would be excellent hardy choices, and they are aggressive enough to stay with the damsels.
Also, is this the damsel you have? If so, it is a neon velvet damsel (one of my favorites)

yep that'd be him...he's definitely the coolest looking fish we've got, although since we had Bubba (the clownfish) first he'll always be my favorite.
Thanks for the input!

yeah he is getting bigger. He's the only one that I can really tell has grown any. I'd say he's probably bigger than the clownfish now, or at least as big.
