Hello, I haven't tried statting up a creature in a while so I figured I would give it a shot. I would appreciate anyone trying to help me out, especially on CR and the trip bonus. Also any ideals or ways to reword any part of it will be considered. Thanks in advance!
Green Golgis
Habitat: Murky, Swampy Waters. They have the habit of nesting in the branches of fallen trees or the roots of mangrove trees.
Feeding: Meat and carrion
Population: Large schools in isolated areas
Appearance: These small brownish green fish are strange looking fish, more rectangular than any other shape. Their appearances are rather comical and their mouth looks like the fish is puckering up for a kiss. This is deceptive however because the over sized lips cover a razor sharp beak.
Other: These fish are despised by fishermen, they can't be eaten and they eat or chase away any other fish in the area. Although small they are very dangerous in large numbers. Their beaks cut small triangles out of their prey, and the Golgis aren't stupid. They use rudimentary strategy when attacking prey, such as going for the back of the knees in hopes of tripping their prey or having a member of the school to appear injured to lure creatures closer.

Wounding (ex): Any living creature damaged by a Green Golgi Swarm continues to bleed, losing 1 hit point per round thereafter. Multiple Wounds do not result in cumulative bleeding loss. The bleeding can be stopped by a DC 12 Heal check or the application of a cure spell or similar healing magic.
Little Fishy reach(ex): If the Green Golgi Swarm’s opponent is waist deep or less in the water only roll 1d6 for damage. If the Green Golgi Swarm’s opponent is waist to chest level than roll 2d6 for damage. If the Green Golgi Swarm’s opponent is beyond shoulder level (or prone) than roll 3d6 for damage.
Distraction (ex): Any living creature that begins its turn with a swarm in its space must succeed on a DC 10 fortitude save or be nauseated for one round. The save is constitution based.
Beak Trip(ex): When a creature is damaged by a Green Golgi Swarm than roll a trip attempt with a +X (Not sure here) bonus as a free action without making a touch attack or provoking a an attack of opportunity. If the attempt fails, the opponent cannot attempt to trip the Golgi Swarm.
