Agree and maybe a colorful Wrasse

the chromis will kill eachother.

I dont really want a wrasse, but thanks for the suggestion.
I thought Chromis were fairly peaceful? Any ideas for a sub?
Want smallish peacefull fish that are 101% reef safe.

Chromis ARE peaceful - to other species, that is

I just picked up a little blue neon goby. Quite a bit of personality for such a wee fella. The way he darts around reminds me a lot of FW tetras. They're so puny that you could add a handful without increasing your bioload by very much. Quite cheap (for a SW fish) and useful too as cleaners.

You should only have an odd number of chromis. 1,3,5, so on.

ryan, i dont know where you got that info. no offence, but i wouldnt trust it. one or none for the chromis in a small tank. I agree with the neon goby suggestion, but i would only go for one. they can be pretty feisty with each other especially in a smaller tank.

as far as bioload, I would go for the perc pair and leave out any chromis. but i am a bit of a conservative as far as bioload is concerned.

From what I remember Ive read it in a couple books. Maybe its not right....
