He doesn't look like a Chromis to me... more like a Damsel of some sort. :wink:

Definitely a damsel, not a chromis. I'd get that one out if I were you - most of those rather plain looking damsels are behavioural problems in the aquarium.

He was in with clowns and and tangs before and was very good. I have been watching him interact with the fish all mourning and he is ignoring them and they don't mind him...

I will keep my eyes on him and pull him if he gets aggressive. I know chromis's are damselfishes, what makes the chromis genus so much more dosile? Maybe this? Amblyglyphidodon Curacao
