Is there something wrong?

My Powder Blue Tang and a Blennie sometimes seem to rub against the rocks. I got the Tang a week ago and the Blennie 2 days ago. I'm thinking parasites. But neither have any spots. And they do not do this frequently. And their behavior does not seem sickly.

I have only had my tank about a month. Someone set it up for me and I don't know much about the setup other than I went for high end system. I wanted to avoid problems. It's a 120 gal with halide lighting, protein skimmer, sump.

What should I do? Should I assume parasites and treat somehow? Should I wait to see if white or black spots appear? I bought some garlic extract which I put on the red seaweed that I put in the tank for the Tang - she does not eat it though. She eats some flake food and likes to "graze" on rocks and the sand/coral bottom. I do not know what the blennie eats.

Thanks for any advice. I am new at this and really want to do the right thing for them.
