I vote mandarin! I love my little guy! Also, instead of the bi color blenny, I say go royal gramma. I wanted a bi color and found the royal gramma to be so much more breath taking with the color and the way he moves. Mine is lightning fast and has a great personality. I really like him. here are some piccies of mine... just for grins 
And as far as stars go, that little red guy is called a fromia star. I haven't had any issues with him, except that my urchin took a bite out of him. I read that they were supposed to be hard to keep. I don't know much about him, he has been with me for a few weeks now... They stat small though, great for a little 20 gal tank.

rlablan great pics of the mandarin, looks amazzing....
i also wanted a diamond goby but if i go with bi color and a royal gamma would i have n e problems with chemistry...?
i also love the color on that star looks dope!!! im just trying to put as much color as possible in that tank, again im only looking at about 4 fish giving them about 5 gallons per fish, which im guessing is good enough...
hopefully all goes well this weekend and i could get my pair of clowns... and ill be happy with that for about a month or two ( i think ) lmao
Update: ive again check my water this evening and ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate came back 0.. and must important ph is now at 8.0
i used marine buffer again hopefully it will get me to the 8.3 it says it will...
other then that its amazing how i can sit here in my room and just stair at my " crab tank " how they call it at work and just be amazed how my CUC is constanly eating away picking at the rocks and digging thru the sand...

Thank you. Yes that start was beautiful. I came home to find that something has eaten him. Sad faces. He had a hole right through his little star body and a few pieces of leg alos became a snack.
As much as I liked him, I do not think I will be getting another one. They move soooooo slowly. I could watch the tank for 30 minutes and he would not budge. I was always wondering in the back of my mind "could he be dead?". Well, I knew for sure this time.
Another really near option fiasco is an urchin. I have a pencil urchin. Hardy little buggers they are. Really neat looking too. Everybody comes over and says "Wow is that living? is that a fish?" Not a fish... but... They are pretty cheap too and very no muss, no fuss.
