I think from what I was reading schooling fish should be added first??? Are these the same as pseudochromis???

As far as I know, does not matter when you add them. No, there are not pseudo's, great thing is that the blue/green chromis are actually damsle's, a total of about $4.00 each.

I thought that you weren't supposed to have that many damsels? Or maybe it was you can't have more than one kind... I do need to add all of the chromis at the same time then right? I have 3 stripe in my other tank.

The chromis are distant members of the damsel family. They are schooling and thus not territorial like most damsels. I have a school of 5 in my tank and they were added last among the fish. Should not matter when you add them as they get along with most any other fish. My clowns even school with them on occasion!!!
AS for the overflow, I have fished one of mine out twice....along with a yellow clown goby (3 times, twice made it to the sump) neon cleaner goby, juvenile percula clown (he made it to the sump) and a scooter blenny. Got some coarse mesh over it now so hopefully they stay out of there. Been working so far!!!
