strawberry dottyback and purple firefish

Any one kept these two together in a system.
I have heard that they often share the same caves in the wild and am thinking of getting a dottyback to add in with my purple firefish, yellow watchman goby and Tomato clown pair

the tank is 30 gallon

Would not add dottyback. Firefish would not have a chance. Let me put it this way. I have 3 damsels and a tomato clown and he chases them. Pretty aggresive fish IMO.

I am curious though do your tomatos ever chase your firefish. My tomato would not let my firefish ever come out of his cave. Poor fella ended up jumping to his demise(before I had a cover).
