I'm setting up a new and bigger tank for a school of blue-green chromis. I've watched the recent BRS chromis tank build, but that is a huge tank and I'm not prepared to get a big grouper to balance out the chromis school. I do need a slightly aggressive tank mate though to encourage the schooling behaviour and keep the inter chromis aggression in check.
It is a 60 gallon rectangular with lots of flow, sand bottom and an aquascape designed to provide a habitat for the chromis. Lots of small branches in the aquascape and overhanging. I also have some larger collonies of SPS (besides a bunch of other corals) that will be part of that.
My existing fish that will definately go into that tank are:
2x Banggai Cardinals
1x Long Nose Hawkfish
1x Diamond Goby
1x Coral Banded Shrimp
was thinking about adding 7 new Chromis.
Any suggestions on the "predator" fish to balance this?
