I found this little fish at the lfs. I'm picking it up next week but I forgot the name and I can't find it anywere. I wanted to do some research on it.

It was a small goby with the looks of a pipefish. Black with a yellow line and a dot on the round tail. Does anyone know this fish?
 
A Yellow Stripe Clingfish Diademichthys lineatus. Can be difficult to get eating, most need a long-spine urchin or will perish quickly. Even when they are eating and healthy, they disappear quickly. Many have no luck with them unfortunately. They are in essence, the Choat's Leopard Wrasse of gobies.
