Weird Blenny changing colors as it swims?

I got this fish a while ago and I noticed that it keeps changing the color of it's head, I mean, he has lines-like patterns around his head and they change color whenever he swims and when he perches on a rock.
I tried finding more info on this fish but I couldn't find anything about this color changing thing. I found a couple of videos on youtube, but the only thing they say is that they're kind of rare?

I took a video of him with actinic light, that's when I can see it most. or at least I think he kind of changes color, or I'm going crazy

Watch closely at 0:30, that's when you can see it change color (also a mini-tour of my tank)

I have a scooter blenny. Mine changes colors from white stripes, to a black face and about the 2 hours up to my light going out he changes his face and center top fin to dark purple. Its pretty awesome. ENJOY
