Default Several Pseudochromidae?

I have seen my local pet store, whom I trust, keep a few Bangai together for
quite a while. They look great under actinics too.

I was thinking of Cardinals as school fish. How about 2 Bangais and 3
Orange Stripes for a 65 gallon?

Excellent! Is the "red firefish" the same thing as a Firefish goby
(nemateleotris magnifica)? If not, what's the scientific name?


Yes:

These things school great in groups.

Main disadvantage: in a large reef tank, then spend a majority of the time
hiding out of sight in the rocks.

Ocellaris clowns are the best schooling fish I've found that love to hang out
in the open water if they have nothing else to do. (Even better if you
DON'T have anemones or other flesh corals for them to host in; if they have a
host, they'll of course spend all their time in the host. But without a host,
they just swim around in the open water 24/7.)
