What's wrong with damsels? They are active, responsive, smart?

IMO & IME they're not that bad of a fish... But yet I have a tank
that is less then 10% of yours and can't hold more then a couple of
Damsels and a gramma...



Nothing wrong really. You describe them as:
Active - Very active and terrotorial.
Responsive - Will defend and drive other that come near it space (probably
the whole tank).
Smart - Very, it will hide when you bring your net near, especially in the
rock-work.

Actually, the original post:

So if I want to put fish in now everyone keeps saying not damsels. What
can I put in that will be hardy, help finish off my cycling, and be
more interesting than watching my live rock?
If I understand correctly, this message regarding about assist in finishing
the tank cycle with regarding damsel. Eventhough Damsel is hardy, it not
really right to cause harm to any hardy fish. Better if new tank can finish
it cycle by adding raw gourmet shrimp and water changes to remove any
excessive A.N.N. and savage any left-over critter that are still alive in
the LR.
