The picture of this Blenny comes from Rokus Groeneveld, a famous fotograf from the Netherlands, thank you very much!
Our thanks also goes to Sanne Reijs, Netherlands.
Have a look on their homepage:

Distribution
Western Pacific: Japan to Papua New Guinea.
Biology:
Inhabits coral reefs.
Found among the branches of both living and dead corals on a shallow coral reef.
Oviparous.
Eggs are demersal and adhesive
Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
