any experience with these? I want to order 5 of them

The Lemon Chromis, is also known as the Ternate Damsel and is presently uncommon to the aquarium industry, making an interesting and attractive addition to the fish-only marine or reef aquarium. This striking fish closely resembles the Yellow Damselfish (Amblyglyphidodon aureus) but sports a stately metallic silver coloration that beautifully offsets the bright yellow coloration. This eye-catching color combo adds flashes of dramatic color for a lively addition that complements your aquarium.
 
I actually have a Buddy of mine using two of them to cycle his 75. By the few hours that i saw, they were defiantly not the most friendly fish. What are you trying to get out of adding these? The Yellow color? The school effect?
 
want something different than regular green chromis

have 3 gramma's coming and 5 of these guys. Do I need to cancel the yellows?

125 gal with
ruby head wrasse
sleeper goby
1 yellow tail damsel
2 clowns
 
With 125 gallons of room the options are endless. Yellow can be achieved by most Tangs, I like mimic Tangs the best, or a yellow corris wrasse. The schooling effect can be cardinal fish, many kinda of Chromis, or even the grammas if they all get along. If you plan on getting an Anemone another great schoaling fish would be Pink Skunk Clownfish.
 
okay, changed order until I can get more info or more folk with experience. Ordered 3 lyretail anthias--2 female, and 3 royal grammas. Will be ordering 3 tangs. Maybe next fish order--1 yellow, and 2 others.
