Dottyback ID please

Well I was going to purchase an Orchid Dottyback but this guy looked so cool. I asked him all the essential questions except for one, are dottybacks jumpers? My tank is mostly covered but if he is a well known jumper I'd like to seal the rest of the tank. Also does anyone know the name of these guys? I searched all over and couldn't find it and I forgot the name the guy gave me.
Thanks for any help!

Maybe a yellow dottyback but you will need to get a much better picture. Try using the manual settings on the camera and no flash.

Oh and ALL fish are jumpers so its better to just cover the entire top of the tank anyway.
