Orchid Dottyback

[CoralKing]

I'm considering purchasing an orchid dottyback to help control bristleworm populations. I've read they can be somewhat aggressive. I have a small neon goby in the tank, and am wondering if the dottyback may pester the goby. Has anyone had any experiences with this fish?

Thanks

What size tank?

are you talking about the fridmandi's pseudochromis. I have one and it is great. It gets picked on by my evil sixline wrasse occasionally

It's probably the mellowest of the pseudos. I really like mine. I would think if there's enough room in the tank the established goby would be OK. Be very careful what you add after the orchid has decided the tank belongs to it.
