After losing all my fish to Sandy I am about to complete my tank with the springer's dottyback I ordered from my lfs last week. My question to of you is do you think I could put an orchid dottyback in at the same time? When I went in to look at the springer I also thought the orchid was beautiful. I watched them for a while and was surprised they hadn't fought. I thought dottybacks were notorious for their same species aggression.
 
It could work if you have many hiding areas. Fish fight if they are similar in color or shape.
 
I have 55gal and a bunch of rock. Here's a pic
