What's your experience with these guys? Aggressive and annoying?

They are usually only aggressive to other basslets. I have kept them in a community tank without any problems.
 
Very pretty fish. I found them to be aggressive in smaller reefs. Maybe I just got a mean one..LOL!
 
Mine terrorized every fish in my tank. It literally controlled 24" of my 48" tank. Traded it into LFS. I would never get another one. Just my experience
 
I also had a Bi-Color Dottyback (Looks like a Royal Gramma).

Neither of them bothered any Fish or Coral in the Tank.

But like I said maybe I got Lucky.
