@@theeastcoastreefer was just sitting in the back garden after a few beers checking YT and you popped up. Used to have the bengal cardinals, beautiful fish. 👍
I got 5 chromis approximately 2 years ago and have had no issues so far, I was told to get a minimum of 5, keep them in a decent sized tank, and keep them well fed and you'll be okay! I've got a regal tang in my 5X2X2 without any issues, if any do occur, I'll give him my mate for his 7X2X2. My biggest regret is a silver spot tang, it killed my naoko fairy wrasse, my algae blenny, and a pyramid butterfly...
Great video with some interesting choices!!! I will be getting some cardinals over chromis, had a regal before it started to become a bully and debate a naoko to add the collection. 👍
@@theeastcoastreefer my aim is to get all juveniles at once!! A male and 3 females ideally!! Try to put only juveniles in seem to have good success with most fish that way.
I got 5 chromis around 2 years ago in my 5X2X2 and still have 5 left without an issue, I believe you need a decent little number, a decent sized tank, and keep them well fed!
What LFS is that please? Single starcki damsels is a good shout, I’ve found most bad copper bands are coming from the same British wholesaler where as those imported from independent catchers do far better, bit more of a premium in price but I’d rather pay more for properly imported fish than not, isn’t fair on the fish or our wallets….

Wow the only thing in my tank with a kill count like that is my pistol shrimp!
@@theeastcoastreefer I like pistol shrimps! But so would my longnose, and Scarlet haskfish!

The Cardinals can be a dick too. my biggest (I think Female but its bloody hard to tell) has killed a smaller one I assume was also female.

Surprised you said your regal was a bully as well, mine is extremely peaceful, and so are my friends etc
@@jhaychthat’s great, always better to be proven wrong if it means peace lol
Good advice! Game called Murder… 🤓😂🥴. I started with five green chromies, now have one that is two inches… Murrrrder! 🤥
Ha ha I don't understand why they are like it but its a very common story!
