Whooo Hooo... I got 2 new fish!!! What are they??
At the LFS that I have been working every other weekend, I have seen this fish there for a few months now...yesterday, I was looking at it and boom!!! I decided I wanted it! I really don't know why no one has bought it before now, except that it not one of your more colorful and well-known fish of this kind...but it has a very subtle beauty and is supposedly very peaceful AND a good algae eater...see who can guess what it is....lolol 
And then I just HAD to get another lawn mower Blennie... so this is John Deere III...I have really missed having one and enjoying their funny personality...this one is HUGE too!
They are both acclimating now, I don't think my camera will be able to capture them but I will try later...

If it's not very colorful its a sailfin tang. I thought for sure it was a Hippo.
