The LFS listed it as a lawnmower blenny but I don’t see the resemblance. Does anyone recognize this fish?

Looks pretty small. To my uninformed eye perhaps a barnacle blenny
 
How does it behave does it grab mouthfulls of sand? Peck at the rocks?
 
Looks like a Panamic Fanged Blenny (Ophioblennius steindachneri
Sorry to everyone! My app doesn’t always send me notifications for my threads when they get a reply.

Panama fanged blenny is by far the closest I’ve been able to find. Thanks all for the help!
