Sorry to hijack but sixline, dottyback and firefish won't make great combination.

I need to do more research then. Please disregard this

I am pretty sure most of the people will say not to add six line and dottybacks. Dottybacks are literally the meanest fish you can have. Six line are also killers. In my experience, the dotty and sixline will fight, the sixline will loose and die and then dotty will go after the docile firefish. Been there :P

If you really like bicolor dotty...why not get a royal gramma? You will get a black dot on the tail and nice attitude as compliments

I just freed up some room in my tank so I want to get some colorful lively fish. Mine all hide in the rocks or under power heads. What would you suggest? 32 gallon

I am no pro at stocking but from my limited knowledge, I should say you are limited to (active + colorful) :

Fairy wrasses (given that you have cover over tank)
Royal gramma (not very active but colorful)
Cherub/coral beauty (if you are willing to take the risk)
