Good Day people... Hello form Vancouver Island, B.C. Canada

Being new to Saltwater and with lots (actually too much) advice from people I know, I had a hard time getting the tank going. From Snails dying within minutes to clown jumping overboard, I thing I'm out of the rough patch now. 5 months into my 45 gallon bow tank and I have a thriving tank with 2 B&W Oscillarious , Pajama Cardinal, Watchman Goby (my favorite), yellow tail Damsel, Firefish and another Damsel (Peach face, light purple body with black dot on its back). Plus throughout the past month I collected some soft corals and Anenome.

So since I'm here has anyone heard or seen a clown host a goby.. I have caught the smaller clown sitting on top of the Watchman even lying on him... Is this just a clown being goofy or what? As a note it is a bit of a bully but doesn't chase the goby but everyone else sometimes.
Thanks and I look forward to being part of the community.
