Pomacentrus Alleni (Alleni Damselfish) ..share your experience

[BlackTip]

I am moving the current patch of fishes from QT tanks to the DT this weekend, and I am thinking of the next purchase. I want a peaceful group of smaller fishes with bright blue or green to complete my stocking. Most likely, this will be the last group of fish to add.

I really like Pomacentrus Alleni. Known as Neon Damsel, Alleni Damsel. I am considering a group of 10-12 fishes

What is your experience with this fish?

Will my tank be overstocked?

Any other recommendations?




Mixed reef tank. 325g (96X30X25)

Current stock:

3x Flasher Wrasses (Carpenter, McCokser, and Blue)
2x Fairy Wrasses (Solone, and Exquisite)
2x True Percula
1x Royal Granma
1x Firefish
1x Fiji Foxface
1x Naso Tang
1x Midas Belenny
1x Spotted Gobi
1x Diamond Watchman (QT to DT this weekend)
1x Orchid Dottyback (QT to DT this weekend)
1x Blue Tang (QT to DT this weekend)
3x Yellow Tangs (QT to DT this weekend)

I want to add 12 Alleni Damselfish

Thanks,

I think Allens would fit in well. I can't really think of a more suitable species for your criteria. They squabble amongst themselves a little but not to the extent of other damsel species. I don't think there is anything on your list that would bother or be bothered by them (maybe the firefish but tbh I think most fish worry a firefish).
I'd also say for stocking you still have plenty of space for them, probably more besides.
