Yellow Clown Gobie behavior

I have just purchased a yellow clown gobie and am wondering if anyone knows any behavioral traits about him? I understand he is peaceful and calm with tank mates, but anything else? Active, front glass swimmer, rock sitter? Would appreciate any info. from those that currently have these guys.

I had one once. they are swim or sink fish. basically rock sitters from what i wittnessed. He was attacked by my two clowns though...I think for the similarity in which they swim. maybe Hope it helps.
 
He is not known for being a noctural fish, but is always lively when the lights go out and stays in a corner of the tank unmoving during the day.

I've only had my citrin/yellow clown goby a few days, but it generally perches on the LR, swooping now and then after a bit of floating food. I have also observed a behavior where it quickly sweeps against the glass and LR which I assume is a way to stir up the copopods.

That is good to know about the rock sitting. It is strange...it seems that he is active at night and seems to be sleeping during the day. Everything I have read leads me to believe they are not nocturnal creatures. He is interacting well with my percula clown and 6 line wrasse. Anything else would be appreciated also.
