Touch of Blue Recommendation?

Starting up a new 75G reef tank and planning out the stocking list. Thus far I'm planning:

- Ocellaris Clownfish
- Royal Gramma
- Yellow Watchman Goby & Pistol Shrimp pair
- Mckoskers Flasher Wrasse
- Yellow-eye Kole Tang
- Blue/Green Chromis
- Banggai Cardinal
- Helfrichi Firefish

Looking at that list I've got lots of yellow, orange, and red, but very little blue beyond the blur/green chromis. Any recommendations on a bright blue fish that would complement this list? Have looked at a number of options (yellowtail damsel, blue tang, etc) but can't seem to find one that a) will be happy long-term in a 75G tank, b) won't mess with corals or inverts, and c) plays nicely with tankmates. Those seem to rule out most tangs, damsels, etc and I haven't been able to find much blue in the other families.

Any advice? Thanks for the help!
 
Blue gudgeon gobies, chalk bass, and neon gobies are all blue and quite peaceful. The atripectoralis chromis looks almost identical to the regular green chromis in pictures but IME they are more blue in person. I have also found azure damsels to be more peaceful than other damsels and are very blue as well.
 
Yellowtail damsel; I've got a pair in my 120 and they are model citizens. Plus they are an electric blue and cost 5 bucks. They are one of the mellower damsels.

Do they act as a pair or do they each occupy their own territory?.. I ask because I was thinking about picking up two.

I have one of these in my 77 as well. Last addition after my Blue Devil died and he's pretty much low man on the totem pole with regard to the other livestock. Doesn't bother anything & hard to beat the vibrant blue colour of these. He's in with a spawning Maroon Clownfish pair, Yellow Tang, Singapore Angelfish. They're pretty well sorted out & no serious conflicts.
