Water moderate to low flow, kessil lights

No other big fish, Foxface is the biggest around 2inches. I also kept 2 nemos and 2 small demsil. Rest are all corals and frags.

Additional, why is Foxface changes color? I see it sometime in grey and zebra like color on the body and sometime yellow?

Fish will change color when they are stressed. I would put money that it is being bullied by the damsels, since they are mean buggers, and that this is why it is hiding.
 
Oh I will take those demsils out and feed it to my lionfish in my other tank
