I bought a captive bread orchid and that thing was so freaking aggressive I had to sell it. It was attaching everything else that moved in my tank. Made all the fish jump out of the tank.
I sold it to someone who had a large tank and same thing....it would attack the wrasse and make them jump out. Anything less than 5" long was a fair game for it.
NASTY FISH...NEVER EVER AGAIN.
And the worse of the worse thing....they are constantly hiding when not coming out to eat or to terrorize other fish so yeah it's beautiful...but you rarely see it anyway. pointless.

There is a gorgeous Orchid dottyback in one of the stores and I would like to know other peoples experiences with this fish.
Specificaly, I have a yellow clown Goby and a Starry Blennie in the tank already and am planning on adding at least another goby to the tank. The info I have read states that they may be aggressive toward smaller fish.
Thanks
