I'm thinking the school is down to a harem-like group and that's why the aggressiveness is gone.
That makes me rethink the group I want to get... I was thinking of getting 20 of them... but if they are just going to rip each other to shreds... oh well

They don't rip each other up so much as harass constantly. But yeah, they're nasty little buggers.

P.S. Feel free to visit when you're in town. Doors always open to a fellow reefer.

Do they harass others or just within the school?
Wife says she wants to come with me the day I stay a few extra hours would a tues or a sat be better?

No, they don't bother other fishes.
Absolutely, bring her along. I'm off Sundays & Mondays. Tuesdays to Saturdays I'm usually home by 3:00pm
