"All the Pseudochromis were
$28.00----but now the site says $45 :(


Well, that's another good argument for buying just one. :-)
The Pseudochromis porphyreus is still only $13, but it's not tank raised.

I was thinking in terms of 1 Splendid, 1 Purple Fridmani, 1 Springeri.

Does that pose the same problem as 3 Fridmani?

The neons seem like they are too nasty to take a chance on.

From everything I've read pseudochromis will attack ANY fish that has a

shape similar to theirs whether it is another pseudochromis, royal
gramma, goby or blenny. The pseudochromis porphyreus I had dug out a
cave under some live rock and chased anything - snail, crab or
clownfish - away form the opening. It was fun to watch him spit
mouthfulls of sand outside his cave hence his name Bob the Builder. He
buried one of my large feather dusters so often the worn left its tube
nver to be seen again.
