A pair of mushroom coral pipefish (Siokunichthys nigrolineatus) in a mushroom coral (Fungia sp.). I am not convinced that there was any specific behaviour going on here, the fish were just in the same part of the mushroom coral. Piaynemo Island, Raja Ampat, West Papua, Indonesia. Tropical West Pacific Ocean.
