Yellow tail damsels

[Annie742]

I know lots of folks don't care for the damsels, but I like the yellow tail type.

I have a 125 gal and I already have 2 along with 1 yellow watchman gobie, 2 clowns (the false kinds, can't think of the correct name O something lol) and one yellow Midas blenny.

I really want more of the damsels, is it possible to keep more of these? I mean more or will they fight to much? I know I have the room
Actually I would like a tank full of them lol because I love the colors!
Oh and my tank has been up and cycled for several months I'm taking it slow adding fish so I have been reading up on them and it seems damsels fit the bill of what I like and are pretty hardy lil guys.

Thanks!

I think 2 or 3 more would be okay in your tank, but I wouldn't go past that.

I've kept them in groups up to 10 in my old 75 gallon before. In my opinion from what I have seen they seem to only mess with each other when in larger groups. If you keep just a single pair they tend to get a bit nippy over their patch of coral though. Overall they are pretty peaceful. I currently have 6 in my 120 together with 8 green chromis, some anthias and tangs. Never had any issues yet. They are wimps compared to most breeding pairs of clownfish. The bigger the tank the better though for keeping a large group of them.
