1 or 2 is ok. I had 5-6 and they whittled down to 2 and then 1. They need lots of food...hi energy fish.

did they school like the regular blue/green chromis before it dropped to 1 left?

I have one - he and my foxface are best buddies. They are great, peaceful fish as a single species IMO. Probably get too big for a 29g, though...they can grow up to 5".

I would call it shoaling, not schooling. The low-man would get chased. Ultimately not sustainable.
