Bryaninops natans
Small size goby, around 2 - 2.5cm in body length. Body is nearly transparent and you can see the bones though it. It gets its common name for the pink eyes.
They are usually found around Acropora corals, just staying on top or floating around it and using the corals to hide from danger.

Thanks, @JimNelson.
Macro shots underwater is more challenging though, as we don't use tri-pods.
Well Done Albert! Macros do bring out the detail, especially under water.
Yes, they are, @Reza.
Like many small/tiny animals, their unique features are more appreciated through photography. Most time, you can hardly see the details of their wonderful features with naked eyes.
Jewel !
Thanks, @triggsturner :)
