You might be able to get away with reaquascaping your tank and adding a couple new firefish then though...

Or buy try adding some that are much larger than the ones you have in there already as this seems to make established fish less likely to get their hate on for the new guy...

I can only speak from my specific experience with paired/shoals of fish and what I've read about firefish.
From reading, I am finding that many sites it shouldn't work but then from talking to a few people who I know with experience keeping them, they say its never been a problem for them. I know I remember seeing tanks too with schools of firefish. Might have been very large tanks though.

In any case, I am now on the look out for a Cherub Angel and I think that will be the fish. Not really the brightest fish but I really want an angel and they are about the smallest I have found and also seem to be one of the most reef safe.
