I believe that this is a Sphinx blenny (Aidablennius sphinx) however, it was relatively very small (~ 4cm) and extremely wary. In fact it just dashed into this small hole in the rock and didn't move out even if I move away. What was of interest was the strong coloration. I thought it could be a male protecting its nest but then the size was rather too small to be an adult.
