Blenny fish (Parablennius gattorugine)

The first of two photos of this blenny fish.  Note its "eyebrows", which remind one of a reindeer.  Incredible coloration make it well camuflaged.  They are bentonic animals, inhabiting rocky areas with a myriad of holes and tunnels.  They seldom stray far from some sort of refuge.  Their bodies are long and slim, similar to that of an eel´s.  Their faces, to me, are very expressive.  They rarely exceed 5"-6" in length.
