What fish look better in pairs or sometimes groups?

About 7 months now.

Awesome! I been tempted but I have a few damsels in my 200g and I fear the chromis will get bullied

@LaloJ I think they only pair and are monogamous once they’re older and can’t be sexed. Congrats is your tank now a 150?

I have some progress towards the 150 but unfortunately it's still a bit far off, probably next year.

Just bought a group of 5 Zoramia leptacantha, blue eye cardinal fish. They have been in the tank 3 hours. 4 have grouped but I can't find the 5th. If I recall right the males can breakaway from the group and hide when the are carrying eggs. They are mouthbrooders and do this when they are about to release the babies usually evening time. We'll I hope that is the case as the one now missing had an extended lower jaw which suggests it is carrying eggs.
Photo of the 4 together. Fingers crossed thevl 5th will appear soon..

I have
3 springeri damsels
3 bangai cardinals
6 anthias
3 different tangs
3 different wrasses

I like 3s

the bangais will kill each other once a pair is formed over time

I have.
4 x African dwarf angels.
2 x Royal grammas
10x Blue eye/threadfin cardinals.
3 x Stary blennies
2x common clowns
7x Springer damsels
The damsels spread all over the tank excepwhen 2 come together to spawn.
Dwarf angels spread around the tank until the males spawns with one of the 3 females.
The cardinals group together.
The clowns sound most of their time in my large Magnifica anemone.
One of the grammas is still small but they often come together.
The Stary blennies are all around the tank occasionally chasing one another.

For the last year 2 have lived on 1 island and the 3rd hangs on the other side of the tank. They don't ever fight
