I'm slowly but steadily stocking my new 40B. The only fishy inhabitants so far is a pair of teenaged maroon clowns. I've also got a skunk cleaner, a small CU crew, and 50 lbs of live rock + hitchhikers.
Next up I have my eye on some Green Chromis, which I think would fit in with where I'm going (smaller fish for a reef-safe community) and add some color. I know GCs are schooling, so I'll need a group. Would three be okay in a 40 gallon, or would they need more room? Or would the group need to be bigger? The advice on fishlore, etc seems to be murky on exactly what is best for them.
