I feel like I’ve seen this posted before, would you happen to know where the video was sourced from? Looks like it’s somewhere in the info-pacific since I can see what I think is a mandarin on the upper right corner of the second pic.
 
Got it! Curious wormfish. Gunnellichthys curiosus
 
They seem to be very rarely collected, liveaquaria has them listed, but no idea last time they were in stock.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
