Peaceful Damselfish recommendations/advice

So it does sound like you may be pushing the upper limits as far as fish load goes. But I dont know your system, just what youve posted here.
I’ve had the Starcki and the springeri together in a 20 long for a while and they are now in a 4x2 aquarium and the relationship is the same. From time to time the Starcki also shows aggression towards my mystery wrasse. He leaves the tangs and fox face alone. My other Starcki was with a melanus wrasse, a convict tang and a foxface. He never messed with anyone, though he was the smallest fish in the tank. He is now only with the melanurus wrasse and they get along fine.
Ok, thanks! My wrasse is small, and my goby is tiny so they barely contribute to the bioload. I also have a good amount of biomedia and my tank is over 2 years old. I want to add about 2 fish to complete the tank. A firefish most likely, and a damsel or a small royal gramma if a damsel does not work out.

Wrasses and gobies don’t always have small bioloads. It all depends on how often you feed them.

I like the Azure Damsel when I replace the 3 spot damsel I'll try them again. Great contrast blue and yellow
 
IMO there really is no such thing as a peaceful damsel
This is the truth... They all can be nasty or not.. depends on the individual fish.. Some are known bullies, but there are exceptions even within their type... that being said - I have a domino in my tank that is the model citizen.. and a honey damsel that isn't ..go figure

Domino was the worst damsel I ever had lol torn down a 150 gallon tank to get one out once.
