I was diving at Pepper Park about 5pm this past Friday when I spotted this little fellow poking out of some coral. I managed to get the photo but as soon as I did, the dude (or dudette) bolted back into its hole never to be seen again. I have no idea what it was but the pic came out pretty cool. Can anyone help me ID it? Thanks!!

Perhaps a Seaweed blenny, best guess.
 
Thanks for the reply. I forgot to add that the hole was about an inch across while the whole rock was about a foot and a half long and a couple of feet high. I know it probably doesn't help much but it was worth a shot. The photo didn't even look like it took when I looked at the camera screen underwater but after I got home and downloaded the pix the little guy really showed up nicely. Kinda reminds me of a dinosaur head with a big eye.
