Chromis will work well for a budget. I started with 1, then decided to start a small school and added 2 more to have a group of 3. They did well for quite a while so I recently added 4 more to have a school of 7. They do school well, and definitely look good in my reef.
I'd avoid even numbers of any schooling fish, especially chromis, since they will get aggressive towards one another if kept in even groupings. In fact, I've heard that the magic numbers are 3, 7, and any odd number more than 7. HTH.

if you have a larger tank a harem of anthias would really be beautiful.

i have 5 chromis in my 125 and they are cool. When i first added a lawnmower blenny to the tank they stuck to eachother like glue looking at him, which was REALLY funny to watch. But now that they got used to him they are out swimming alone or in groups of 2 or 3, but the smallest one seems to be like a loner unless they are all swimming together or its feeding time.
I am wondering if they will stay more in a group once i add some tangs and other fish in there that will be bigger and swim around.
