How many blue-green chromis can I keep in a 20 gallon tall aquarium with a pinkbar goby, Randall's pistol shrimp, sexy shrimp, and two red neon eviota gobies?

And how many without the two eviota gobies?

1 with, 1 without. The're likely to kill each other until 1 is left over.

This, I assume its the same for my 180G. People talk about beautiful schools of Chromis but in my experience they will always kill each other off one by one picking on the current weakest fish until there is one. Maybe with a 5000 gallon they wouldn't but I doubt even that with my experience.
 
I had 5 in a 150 gallon years ago...all but one died mysteriously over a few weeks. Always loved the idea of schooling fish but wasn't able to replicate it with them for some reason.
