Single green chromis?

[fishyfun2]

Will a green chromis really not do well without other chromis? I have 2 clowns and a tailspot blenny. Looking for an active, inexpensive fish that swims all over the water column. My tank is a 29 gal and I may be maxed out soon on space, so I don't think I can add 3 of them. Anybody just keep one of them?

I have had a single for about a yr now. It does fine.
I also have a single pj cardinal.

you have a 70% (made up, but seems reasonable after reading some posts) chance of having all your chromis kill each other off till you have one left anyway, so go ahead and get only one.

Hey thanks you guys! Good to know, I think I'll go for it.

i keep 2 cromis together and they seem fine! i had one then added another one and they did chase eachother for a day or two but now they swim all over together and even sleep in the same little den. i guess i never heard of them attacking eachother or read other post on them so i just found it interesting on what you said.

Ive tried adding three - two times and always end up with just one.

Yep, just add the one. You will avoid all of the fights leading to only one.

Sounds good, thank you for the help!
