Cirriemblemaria lucasana (Stephens, 1963)
Cirriemblemaria lucasana commonly known as Plume blenny can be found in coral reefs in the Gulf of California. This species feeds primarily on zooplankton and inhabitsempty mollusc tubes on rocky reefs.
Due to the fact of the Plume on the head the under water photographer Dr.Alicia Hermosillo called him jokingly "Punk blennie".
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!
