Based on the third picture, it does look like an L052.

In my opinion is the fish held by fingers Dekeyseria brachyura. I keep L052 myself, and a L052 would not look like this, after my experience. And specially not in stresscolouration.
The fish is about 8 cm SL?

The other pictures is not good enough for me personally to try to guess identity.
Kind regards, Terje.
