I have had this fish for about a month and every time I put my hand in the tank he does this Joys silly fish - YouTube If someone puts their hand outside of the tank and he sees it he tries to sit it it as well.
 
my starry eyed blenny is a hides like a baby 75% of the time lol
 
It seems every fish has their own little personalities.
 
Thank you here is a couple my son took for me

Those are nuclear green polyps they are like a weed in that tank I had them under MH and they just barely held on. They are under 4 t5s now in a 55 gallon. That picture was taken about 3 months ago I need to get my son to take another one.

Wow, those are beautiful! I just have a few polyps of the boring-brown kind LOL
You think they will do ok under my 8bulb system in my new 120g tank?!
 
I am pretty sure they will. My friend got a frag from me and he has them under a 70 watt MH in a 12gallon cube and his is doing fine. I do know I can take a colony and frag it put it under 3 different types of lights and they will all look different. On that tank I have one purple one actinic the whites I think are 14k. It is probably a cheap light since it only has one reflector.
 
It is only a 55 gallon. There are 4 fish royal gamma, clown, wrasse and the blenny. It has been up since Jan 2011/ For the CUC I have about 3 blue legged hermits, a peppermint shrimp, the very important bristle worms, 3 banded trochus, 5 nassaruis.4 truban and a few stromatellas. I change about 5 gallons a water a week sometimes more just depending how things are going. I feed my tank once a week which means I feed mysis to the whole tank, silversides to the anemones and I turn off the pumps. I feed the fish twice a day once with flakes formula two and rods food. I also have a refugium, skimmer and 2 koralias. I use a mag float to clean my glass once a day.
 
Very impressive setup, gives me something to look forward too someday! Mines been setup since march and you're leaps and bounds ahead of me
