Anybody know what this is? I got it from a friend who didn't know what it was either.

Fluff, that is what I found the closest to be except the spots are blue. Can't find anything on it.
 
I believe there is a blue spotted goby as well but haven't ever seen one myself. I'll see what I can find.
 
Ok, from what I can find, the blue spot is also called the wheeler's goby (Amblyeleotris wheeleri). The only pic I could find looks like yours but the colors were way more intense. So, possibly. :?
 
The one I have is almost transparent. A little yellowy. Almost like the color of a glow in the dark sticker when in light with small blue spots. There are 4 bands on it but they are not very pronounced
 
I'm sorry, I'm out of ideas. All I can say is it looks like some sort of shrimp goby. Hopefully someone else will have more ideas.
 
Its defintly a watchmen, i have two that are breeding and the one i assume to be the male was at first yellow but has changed completly to look like the one in the picture.
