      It's a cardinalfish of some sort, and by the look of the jawline it (he?) seems to incubating (mouthbrooding).

      Thanks Alan!, Yes, Apogonidae seems a good match. I don't knew that they're mouth-breeders such as many cichlids. But Apogonidae is a too big family for make a closer search! Thanks to you I can at least put the file in the family fowlder :) Thanks again!

      @gentle lemur yep, it's a male. only male cardinalfish mouthbrood, the females play no part in parental care.
