Dentex blenny – Nyálkáshal (6 cm)
Pale brown with white spots, black spot behind eye. Inhabits protected reefs, 1 to 15 m. Rests fully exposed on dead or live corals. Retreats to shelter of a small hole when disturbed. Common and approachable.
Range: Gulf of Aqaba only?! (I’ve met him at Marsa Alam).
