Currenlty the tank only holds a clown, damsel & dottyback.

Thoughts?

The problem you have is the dottyback is really aggressive and you do not have a working sand bed. The purpose of the sand bed is to cultivate all the critters (and it takes a few months) that the gobies like to eat.
They are shy eaters and the fish will eat all the food before it gets to the bottom unless you go to the trouble of target feeding it.
The twin spot's meal is filament algae and is tough to keep alive.
One of the clown gobies would look good together with any other goby that is not a bottom feeder.
