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.
