Thank you for positing this for me

I still can’t figure out why it won’t post any of my pictures so thanks again for helping

I was thinking he was a juvenile Mantis Shrimp and maybe one of these theee below:

Gonodactylaceus ternatensis

Odontodactylus scyllarus

Neogonodactylus wennerae

It’s definitely not a peacock. Juveniles look just like the adults.

I don’t think it’s any of those, maybe the curacaoensis?

G. smithii imo.

Possibly a N. Wennerae color morph but looks like a G.smithii. Are its mural spots purple?
