I don't think they pair well. Would do better with a trio - but not in a 90. I'm going to try a harem of 5 soon and f that goes well I'll add 5 more. I love Royal Grammas.

One of our local reefers had a pair in a 265. He got both very small and added at the same time. A harem would be beautiful.

Grammas really do not get along in pairs or larger numbers unless they have a heck of a lot of room..thinking you are going to end up with a dead fish..
