School of damsels

[parkinsn]

I don't think it's fair to tell a newb that fish will not school without a predator to "scare" them.

Im not trying to be unfair to a "newb", the key word in what i said was MAY not school like you want. A large tang tang swimming by may make them feel threatened even though it would never harm them. Im sure people have had luck with getting fish to school with no predators or threats. All the power to you if you want to try a school. A lot depends on the individual specimen(s) you could have 2 of the same fish ie. Hawk fish 1 eats your shrimp and the other has no intrest in them..... Again im not trying to be negative here.

Whatigot... What other fish do you have in your tank?
