Or are you trying to get that beagle to choke on a fish bone so you keep trying and just hope nobody notices?
(P.S. now I'm going to have to spend a day over there at some point to look at your guys' tanks)

Thanks for the compliments.
As for the Chromis: They are Damselfish and like other damsels they tend to not play well. The more dominant individuals pick on the weaker ones until you're down to a few. My twelve went down to five in about 7 months. The remaining five squabble a little but that's about it. An interesting thing: Once the school got down to five, they began spawning like clock work. I'm thinking the school is down to a harem-like group and that's why the aggressiveness is gone.
