I have two of them in my tank. I am a beginner at this hobby and so far so good with these guys. I feed them brine shrimp twice every day... they don't seem too keen on the seaweed I'm giving them but I think I may have to shop around on that one.... I even got them for a steal, 4 bucks each cuz the pet guy thought they were damsels lol

Would you mind a couple of words of admittedly unsolicited advice? Brine shrimp won't sustain your fish. Fish love them, but they have little nutritional value. I also would be surprised if those fish were very interested in nori. You should try a good quality pellet like New Life Spectrum. If you want to feed frozen, switch to mysis. They'll love it and it's good for them.
Sorry for the hijack, Steve.
No problem. I totally agree with Robin. Also chromis are damsels.
I have 5 of them. Peaceful, active, don't 'school' much at all but seem to prefer the open middle water column. Mine will eat just about whatever will fit into their mouths. Fish eggs and Hikari Mysis seem to be their favorites. Only negative I have is that with a black background, they're somewhat hard to find. Subtle beauty though. I would totally recommend them and may get a few more.

Any updates on these fish? Thinking of getting about 7 of them.
