On a sidenote, I see you had a Yellow and a Blue Assessor together? How did they get on together? Were they added at the same time or different times? Theoretically they shouldn't get along, but I currently have a Blue and would love to add a Yellow.
I've always read that assessors are pretty non aggressive...?
Though I tend to only take first hand acccounts from aquarists into consideration of in tank aggression so maybe popular research opines differently.

I can attest to both my blue and my yellow never showing any aggression to each oother or any of the other conspecific basslets in my tank, so maybe I'm just lucky.
The yellow (about half the size of the blue) was added about a year before the blue one so strictly speaking from my experience you should have no issues at all adding a second assessor.

I guess theoretically, my 4 grammas shouldn't get along either though...

The blue is much more cryptic while the yellow is very interactive and swims upside down in the open water which (Milad) is why I liked it so much.
