Blue/Green Reef Chromis

I had once 12 of these on a 75 gallon DT and they picked up each others to death in a rate of one per month. So after 1 year I had only one left. Thought she was happy about the position she has driven herself into... Anyway, I have planned to put something like 50 of these into my upcoming approximately 175 gallon DT with an idea that when the school is large enough, they cannot point out to weakest to pick up. Am I on the right track?

i bought 8 for my 150gal about 2 years ago, went down to 6 quickly, then had the 6th jump on me but have had 5 now for over a year and schooling great
Cool. I just got 6 today to my 4 established Chromis and now have 10.. They school great at times but then I see aggression toward the smaller weaker ones.. I hope the 10 last as long as your five.
