Yellowtail Damsels

I love the look of these guys, and wouldn't mind having a bunch in my 220 reef. I understand they are on the low end of the damsel aggression scale, but how are they? Could I get away with about seven? Would they stay together, keep their distance, or just fight a lot? Would prefer first hand experience as opposed to "OH NOES! DAMSELZ!!!":p

I added three to my 120. Two paired up and the odd man out was geting picked on. I think you might have better luck with a larger grouping. Nice little fish, but testy at times, even with each other. Mine have spawned a couple times.

Thanks for the response. I have a feeling that a large group would do a little better than just three. I think I'll try it, as long as I don't start hearing a lot of horror stories.

As far as damsels go I would say good choice.I had a pair for a while and and had no major agression problems.
