I definitely wanted a Midas when I first started looking for blennies but then I stumbled upon my flametail and he is awesome!

ive read about alot of success with keeping track of where they sleep, as in under what rock, in what corner of the tank, etc, and place the nem there and that helps out alot.

turn your lights completely off for the evening wait a few hours and see where they settle at, try that for a week or so and youll see where they like to be, ive noticed a trend in all 3 of my tanks though, they like to sleep where theres not too much or no flow at all so they can sleep in one place.

I have three tanks with clowns....the 125g ones sleep in the upper right corner near the output, the 90g guy sleeps upside down in the back left corner behind the overflow and the ones in the 60g sleep and hang out in the far back under and behind some rocks. lol

The clowns hang out in front the whole time the lights are on. I'm assuming I might have luck if I have a nem. Would a slight diatom bloom be too soon for a nem? Are they ok without any coral or anything to hang out around?

Diatom bloom is in full effect and I'm starting to panic a little bit. Here are some pics of the tank and my parameters
