    His whole tank is the perch, he goes all around the tank sitting in various corals/areas. I have a toadstool about 2.5" to 3" wide when fully opened, and he loves to just sit in that.

    Well I will probably never go with an sps tank, I have enough difficulty with softies, so I wont have to worry about acros.

    When I got my clown goby I was having the same problem. He wouldn't eat anything when I fed the tank for a good week, but he wasn't looking horrible. Then I fed flakes for about a week straight and then the next day I fed frozen and he started eating. Now he will eat anything I put in the tank... frozen, live, flakes... you name it. If he wasn't finding anything to eat, he would have been dead before 2 weeks. So he is obviously eating either pods or left over food.
