LFS had one of their tanks today with what they reffered to as "Scissortail Chromis" They were black, with yellow tails that formed a yellow V shape (Sort of like scissortail rasboras in FW). They don't look like the scissortail chromis I've seen pics of online. They color pattern also does not resemble the black versions of yellowtail damsels.

If you have any ideas I'd like to hear, if they are actually a chromis that won't become aggressive I'd like to pick up a few, if they are Damsels labelled as chromis I'll pass

Hrmm after looking more seems like the more likely candidate is the Yellow Tail Demoiselle (Neopomacentrus azysron)
