What fish hang out together in your tank that make an odd couple?

So I just got a yellow eye kole tang that likes to hang out with my diamond watchman goby. They do their own thing for a lot of the day but the kole goes out of his way to spend time with him at the sand.

Achilles tang and adult leopard wrasse. The wrasse has even cleaned the achillies who is only slightly longer than the wrasse.

My blue chromis loves to hang out with the gang of lyretail anthias.

My two tank tyrants... a purple tang and a potter's angel.

Excuse the poor photo quality, but my Foxface and Puffer are virtually inseparable:

My ocellaris clownfish and flame angelfish are the best of friends.

My yellow tang absolutely loves hanging with my yellow watchman goby.
The goby puts up with it, but never initiates.
