Fish Identification

Gday raiders

Just going through my phone and found a photo I took of a fish I caught a few weeks ago at Roseville. Nothing was on the bite on plastics that day except for these little pickers. Not exactly a table fish, but very cute. Any ideas?

Cheers

I've caught and seen plenty of these around roseville. Most are tiny around 10cm but pulled in a 30cm one time. No idea what they are either... Some sort of Lungfish ? Maybe they grow into eels ? Only ever see them at roseville though...

I'm only going off of fish I've kept in saltwater aquariums but that kinda looks like a species of jawfish..

Looks like an oyster goby

Thanks Dolmo

That looks spot on with what I was catching that day. I landed about 3 of them.
