Diamond Leatherjacket (Rudarius excelsus) is a small species of filefish that is found in the Western Pacific, ranging from northern Australia to southern Japan. Diamond leatherjackets inhabit sheltered coastal reefs and seagrass fields where they will feed on algae and small invertebrates.
The diamond filefish is also the smallest species in Tetraodontiformes (Astronomy to zoology)

Regarding the type of Grub....
"Hard to say without having them in the hand, and certainly an interesting problem. I agree with Jeremy that leatherjackets (Crane Flies) are the most likely, though they are usually greyer in colur than the ones in the photos.
Another possibility is wireworms (Click Beetles). They are more like that colour, but they are usually thinner and more wiry, so I'd make my first choice leatherjackets, as suggested by Jeremy.

I love watching these pairs as the males swoops backwards and forwards, trying to impress the female with his big (relatively speaking) ventral pouch. In this shot, the female is in the foreground and the male is slinking up behind. Clifton Gardens
Fanbelly leatherjackets get their name from the skin flap they can extend below their belly, seen here with iridescent blue spots. I've seen male other leatherjackets using their belly flap as a mating display - not sure what it means in the fanbelly. Anyone speak fish?
I got inspired to do this as a self portrait. Initially, my friend and photographer Adam Ghahate told me my outfit resembles Laura Croft from Tomb Raider. So, I decided to play on it and convey a young girl lurking in the shadows, raiding cars and apartments. In the back of my apartment complex, I wanted to produce an image showing myself "getting caught" as this backyard raider. I portrayed this character by wearing a grungier outfit and my leather jacket. I wanted something different composition wise; I decided to shoot from the ground and foreshorten my foot to my body.
Image Specs: Shot with the Canon 6d and the 24-105mmL lens. Lighting was achieved with recycled film flashes. A soft box was feathered at an angle to my face and a shoot through umbrella for fill light. I dragged the shutter to get my ambient light in the background.
Post Processing: Editing achieved with Lightroom 5.2, Exposure 5, and Photoshop CS6 .

This particular classic leatherman is myself. I'm wearing patrol boots, jodhpurs, belt, jacket, gauntlet gloves, shirt, tie, and cap, all in black leather. The badge is authentic. The dark glasses were optional. My trustee Sarge took the picture.

I do love this time of year, when the ladies dress up in their leather jackets and boots, hinting at a side of their personalities that doesn't seem so apparent in summer clothes..
In summer, they dress in light, frilly things, full of sunshine and girly things. In winter, it's black leather and tall boots with heels, more fitting it seems, for walking in the shadows of the night..
I think there's a little bit of Pat Benatar in every woman.
