The second is a blenny, but I'm not so good in ID-ing the different members of this family. It could be a redlip blenny (Ophioblennuis atlanticus).

thanks---thought it was as it kinda acted like one...lol....Thing I'll go google me some Blennies....

I just looked it up & I think you're correct---a redlipped blenny.....you would believe I shot the wrong end(back end) of it-------lol.......Thanks for the help......
 
Diver85,
Google on pikeblenny too. In your first picture the dorsal fin is hidden in the sand.


thanks again---think you got them both.......
