I also almost brought home a Springeri Dottyback.
They are beautiful. The blue on their heads, in contrast to their black bodies, is really striking under the right lighting.

He'd match my two Springeri Damselfish.

Oh, and in other news, and speaking of lighting: I absolutely hate the KZ 2nd Gen Coral Bulb! Way, way, way too white for my taste. It just washes out the whole system. It is getting pulled from the fixture and replaced with another Super Blue. That will make three (3) KZ Super Blues and one (1) KZ Fiji Purple. I'll let the K7's handle the whites to dial in the right spectrum. While not a fan of "windex tanks", I also don't care for bright white either.

I need more blue in my tank.
I have a yellow tail blue damsel in mine for that exact purpose. I had a pair of them, but when I moved rock around, one got trapped and didn't survive. I actually still feel horrible about that.

I've got two Springeri Damselfish. I'm considering adding a Broadstripe or Blue Cleaner Goby and the Springeri Dottyback. I don't really want a blue tang.

I would add a pair of the blue cleaner gobies. They are small and when they pair up, they have some really fun behaviors to watch. I had two blue and two yellow cleaner gobies in mine, but my Red Flame Cardinal ate them. F'n *******. He also ate two juvenile Engineer Gobies. Well, technically one, but when the other one got away from him all beat up, my female Sebae Clown grabbed it and stuffed it into her nem's mouth.

I've already got a Sharknose.
