I had 6 starcki damsels in a reef tank awhile back and they got along fine. I now have 1 in my 150 gallon tank and would like to add a few more(maybe 4). Do you think I will have any issues if I am adding them all at the same time? The 1 currently in the tank is a little bigger than the rest. He shows no aggression towards other fish and actually gets bullied by my purple tang.

Thanks!
 
i may be wrong here, but if planning other fish for the 150, i would be very careful with damsels.
 
Starki are hard to find through ….. four may be a challenge to find all at once.
 
If you can add them simultaneously, it should be fine.
 
As above, in a 150 you should have plenty of space for them to escape the resident one if need be but adding 4 should dilute any aggression quite well.
