That picture was taken under a very large overhang,with my lighting plus extra lighting from my buddy.Normally these fish huddle together ,in groups when they are sleeping at night.It makes them look a lot bigger,when the night predators are prowling.

Yes it startles them,but less 5 mins after the picture was taken they was back in the same position.Quite a lot of fish on the reef,sleep in the same place nightly.Fish sleep with there eyes open,most have no eylids like us
humans.
