Ahhh books.... Lovely anecdotes from often singular experiences. So I'll share my unpublished experiences.

I have had a wingle Yellow-Tail Blue Damsel in my tank almost since it's inception (nearly 2 years now). It's never caused a problem with any of my other fish, and is quite possibly one of the most docile fish I have. I mean sure, if another fish tries to hang out in his "area" he'll chase em out, but never to the point of physical confrontation and/or damage.

I also at one time had a school of small Green Chromis in the tank (6 of them to be exact). Again, never had a problem with them and the Damsel. I did observe the unusual situation where month by month another one would "dissapear". This experience has been shared by others I have talked to who have kept schools of Green Chromis. Eventually when I was down to 3 large ones, I traded them away.

Still have the Damsel, and he gets along in my 100gal tank with the following tankmates:

1 - Blue (Regal) Tang (4")
1 - Yellow Tang (3")
2 - Percula Clowns (1.5-2")
2 - Bangaii Cardinals (2.5")
1 - Royal Gramma (2")
1 - Christmas Wrasse (5")
