I'm assuming a Chromis of some kind? I took it in on a rescue, and I cannot identify it...yellow tail Chromis? Sunshine Chromis? Is it reef safe? Is it mixed reef safe?

Yellow Tail Blue Damsel - Chrysiptera parasema. They’re of the more peaceful genus of damsels but that is not to fool you, they are still fairly aggressive.
 
Agreed, reef safe damsel! Can be very aggressive and territorial, don't let their cute face and small size fool you.
 
Aggressive towards their own species? Or should I be concerned about it bullying my tangs/clowns?

They can be aggressive to their own, or less aggressive fish. Tang and Clowns won't be bullied by them.
 
Lol thank you for all the help! Looks like I may be adding to my mixed reef after quarantine! Happy reefing fellas!
