Condy Compadibility?

[Mr. Eel]

I want to get 2 condy nems for my 55 gal fish only ( and now possibly not fish only ) tank. I was wondering: Will they fight w/ e/a other chemically or physically? Will my dwarf puffers eat em? Will they bother my eel? Will they settle down anywhere in the tank or move around? And does this sound like too much bio for 55 gal tank: 3 dwarf puffers one blue spot one valentini and one bennets sharpnose, 2 percula clowns, one snowflake moray eel, a wrasse of some sort ( haven't made up my mind yet ( suggestions would be great )) and the 2 condies.

I only have the one Condy, so I couldn't tell you how it would interact with another. As for fish I have 2 T/P Clowns, Firefish, Melenaurus Wrasse, Flasher Wrasse and a Copper Band Butterfly and there are no problems with either the fish or Condy. Out of the three different nems I have the Condy was the one that moved the most in the beginning, but has settled into his home and has been there for over a year now. My Condy was the size of a golf ball when I bought it, now it's the size of a softball, so keep that in mind for your 55g.

Sorry for the small pic. My tank will be going on 2 years soon, this is around the one year mark. The Condy was moving around the tank at this time looking for a better spot. After settling on the glass near the top for a while it moved down to these rocks, but was taking up real estate I had planned for coral. I moved that Tiki Head near it hoping it would move to that. It did and I was able to move the Condy and the Tiki Head away from the rocks were it still is today and very happy with his home. The tank is a 75g so you can get an idea of it's size.

Here's my Condy inside his home. He shares it with the Flasher Wrasse when He's not retracted into it and taking up space. The Wrasse will go in and out of the eye holes.

cool what do you think about the bio though should I stick to one condy because I have heard they can be aggressive.
