no, there are certain ones that are aggressive, mine is in the tank with the following fish and doesn't bother anyone;
~ lrg silver mono
~ 2 lrg one spot fox face
~ 5 tangs ( 2 hippos, yellow, bristletooth, yellow eyed kole)
~ juv emperor angel
~ 2 perc clowns
~ cinnamon clown
~ clarkii clown
~ bangii cardinal
~ cleaner wrasse
~ 3 chromis
~ engineer goby
IMHO, the trick to keeping this many fish is that you have to feed them, mine get fed 2x daily...

I forgot to add to the list, yellow tailed and velvet damsel, the lights aren't on yet or I would send you a picture ...for a clean up crew all I have is a bunch of ninja star snails (less than 15)... right now I have aptasia so I am looking for 4 peppermint shrimps, I have 2 and need more...other than the aptasia the tank is extremely healthy, I also run a huge reef octopus skimmer...

Need to get some blue hermits maybe some red ones to make sure no extra diatrus is hanging around.
I have very limited experience but my blue legged hermit killed everything he could get his grubby little Claws on. Would sit there and try on 6 or more empty shells one after the other. Yes I bought empty shells to limit his blood lust but that didn't stop him. He wouldn't even eat them, just leave the carcasses in the sand. Let's just say he ain't sleepin with the fishes no more.
