Description

'Tube worm blenny' On Black (Plagiotremus rhinorhynchos) A very colorful and quite active little species. up to 12cm,but this one maybe just 5cm.

If distubed will rapidly retreat tail first inside the tubeworm shell it uses as a shelter. The species is an 'aggressive mimic' of the Cleaner Wrasse Labroides dimidiatus; it dances like the cleaner fish to attract a client, but then bites flesh from the duped client fish instead of cleaning it.
