Green chromis schools

[shoddyk]

What is the largest number of green chromis that someone has in their tank? I have 3 currently in my 125 gallon tank and after seeing a photo of a large school of them I would like to do the same.

I had 13 in my 300 at one time; they got big, fought a lot with each other and then several mysteriously disappeared. I have 9 now and will be getting rid of them. They don't really school as much as hang out in the same spot and bicker a lot; they are damsels after all...

Not worth the trouble IMO; I'm getting some Anthias...

There are several threads in here about how good chromis are at weeding out their numbers. They tend to reduce themselves to just a few.

I would aboid chromis as a schooling fish, perhaps some anthias?
