Hi guys I recently cycled my tank and added a yellowtail chromis from my local fish store it was doing great but then i decided to add the other yellowtail chromis a week later. Friends that have viewed the tank think that they are just playing together but I am concerned that the big one is chasing the small one and will inflict damage, I've read multiple reports on here that they will fight to the death. and am just wondering your thoughts.

Just saw this. Two Chromis of the same ilk is really not a good Idea from my experience. Sometimes, I have learned that adding a third fish like an Oscellaris Clown may solve the issue by giving the bully someone else to focus and deal with.
