schooling fish

[vass69]

i'm looking for a couple of smaller fish for my reef tank that can/would school or shoal up, is there or have you heard of anything that might fit this description?

green chromis or pyjama cardinals would work.

green chromis or pyjama cardinals would work.

Unless there is space for 10 - 12 green chromis, i would not go for them...very unpredicable at best...PJ's is a good suggestion though

 

[vass69]

Will they actually form a school or does this only occur in the wild?

my personal favorite are blueeye cardinals, but any cardinal species would work.

i was told to get an odd number of fish so i got three green cromys and they school fine

i'm actually looking for a large group of small fish, maybe 9+... so everyone is leaning towards cardnials...

I think 9 chromis' would look pretty sweet. I have three of them and they schooled together as soon as I added them.

Will the different types of cardinal fish school together?
