My RG gets along well with everyone. I have two clown fish, a Royal Gramma, and a Yellow Tang.

i have a fairy wrasse and a coral beauty and the RG is the most passive and "scared" of the 3. far from being agressive, he typically tries to stay away from the others. when i feed them, i am always worried about him not getting enough because he won't challenge the other fish for food.

that is not to say he is contantly harassed. it is to say he is the least likely to cause problems in my tank. he is only territorial to the extent that he prefers a particular spot in the tank. but if one of the other fish go down into that spot, he simply moves over and is prepared to go somewhere else.

Mine has only picked on my chromis and that was when they got moved into my 75. I have heard some people say that theirs is really mean and picks on their fish.

Watch out if your wanting a mandarin. I got a nice mandarin and it was dead in 2 days. Everyone I talked with suspected the gramma. Just a heads up.
