Midas blenny or Bicolor blenny
My Midas is the star of the tank. He gets along with all tankmates and eats EVERYTHING I offer. Even when I try to feed the corals Cylopes or Phyto he has his face in the turky baster. These guys have tremendous energy though, and I'm not so sure about never jumping. Sometimes he tries to push himself up out of the water with his tail fin like a dolphin dancing on the water. I keep my tank covered, but I would imagine it would be well within his power to clear the ledge if I left the lid up.
He has this one thing he does that is really cool. There is a little nook in one of the rocks that leans against the glass that is the exact size and shape of his body. This is where he sleeps. He can swim at great speeds right into that little nook, and back out of it without a scratch and he does this with comical agility. No tank should be without a Midas.
Mike. Great pictures, by the way.

My Midas will indeed eat just about anything put into the tank, but I've never seen him bother any corals at least not my softies, and he's never shown any attention to my Kenya Tree and won't go near the Frogspawn. But I feed the tank well. All my fish are fat. Truthfully, just judging by the Midas' personality I'd say one might nip at corals or anything if they were not fed as much. Mine might do it just to get my attention if he got bored. The Midas I keep actually perches on a rock and lethargically watches TV but gets noticeably active during the commercials because he knows that is when he will get intention. They are bright fish, but probably stupid enough to jump out of a tank if it didn't have a lid.

I don't see them much, but I love my Red Sea Mimic Blennie. Eats Algae, Flake, whatever and is a really pretty blue.
