Midas Blenny Harassing Toadstool

[tanku]

I put a midas blenny and a fairy wrasse in my tank yesterday. the blenny sometimes thumps his body against my closed up toadstool, preventing it from opening up. he is not scratching like he has a parasite, he only rubs against the coral occasionally and never on anything else. has anyone else experienced this.

My Midas hosts in my elephant ear,
from this morning my 2 clown now share with him.

Midas like to sit around, or in a hole with head poking out, give him a chance, and watch those baby blue eyes watching you all the time.

Aren't elephant ears fish eaters? Is your blenny immune to it or something?

I thought i got it wrong but according to my Bibles,
it is an elephants ear, leather coral, Sarcophyton trocheliophorum,
if it continues to grow like it is the clowns and midas will be losing a home.
