    I have 9 chromis in my tank for a while now and all is well. I think they are less prone to fighting in a larger group . Only problem with chromis is finding healthy ones . I had bought a bunch back and not all made it and then those that did were zapped by faulty pump . This last bunch is...

    Corals for Nano?

    Just make sure that whatever you decide to add to the tank are not prone to weed like growth . Some mushrooms,kenya tree,xenia,etc. will quickly take over the smaller space . You will also be suprised how different zoa's will morph colors under the new lighting.
