Question about HDRI and Reflections (Solved)

I'm using an HDRI to light my scene and in this picture, I have one of my characters holding a marble. The Draw Dome is off so the background doesn't appear in the scene but it does reflect in this marble. I made the marble from a primitive. I know I can dial down the reflectivity and be fine but I kinda like how it reflects. I just don't want the background. Hardly a "make or break" thing, just a preference. Can I have it my way or do I need to compromise with the Gods on this one?

    Found it! I was stuck with the idea that the answer was in the surface tab. Turns out, Render Settings/Environment...Dial Down the Environment Map from 2.0 to 0.0 and there you go! All the light and reflection, none of the background!

    OKay...for any future readers...that didn't really work. It worked good enough to have a shiny marble though!
