I really like Assessors as they stay small and are pretty. But not to good with Gobies of the same shape.

I'd agree to stay away from the mandarin. I got a pair from a fellow canreefer that was eating flake and frozen food, but after I got my candy hogfish, they both ended up starving to death. While they will eat some flake and frozen food, they were still constantly looking for pods and the hogfish were much quicker and better at eating the pods. And yes, I do have a refugium full of pods.

Until a jawfish establishes their "hole", they are known as huge jumpers.

The only dottyback I would consider in a peaceful environment would be an orchid. All the rest can get very aggressive.
