Welcome to R2R, Gerald :)

Looks like a nice mix of fish. Chromis these days are so often infected with uronema, which is very difficult to remove (it doesn't need a fish host to survive) and deadly, that many have crossed them off of their lists. If your heart is set on them, highly recommend a separate quarantine tank to observe them, by themselves, for at least 30 days.

I just put 6 in my tank as my first starter fish. What are the signs of uronema?

I agree that I would skip the Chromis. They also tend to pick each other off over time in captivity. Many start with a small school only to end up with 1. If you want a fish that will form a small group and do okay long term you could try some Zebra Dartfish:

I can't stress this enough, I put in 2 chromis and they wiped my whole tank.

@Humblefish is a expert and anyone wanting a Chromis should read his thread.

I think I will look into something else. I had no clue thank you for the info in the uronema.

Just for the heck of it, check out Blue Sapphire Damsels. They are very peaceful and a unique blue color. ;)
