Left severum is the new one you can see the difference in body color but he's still stressed I just put them all in 15 minutes ago

Female salvini

Now here's my question I was told this fish is a cow fish but I don't know so can I get a positive I.D and what would the price be for a fish like this? he is 10" I already bought him with the other 2 fish but just want to see if I paid to much or got a good deal thanks

That's some kind of goby,not sure exactly which or the name.I have seen them listed as water cow or something like that,I was never interested enough in them to remember the prices or research them.

after a small bit of internet research and looking into what krichardson said its definitely a marbled goby often called a water cow, they will eat anything they can get in their massive mouths, can get up to 17 inches sometimes over and look like seriously mean mofo's :) sounds like fun to me

Yes they do lol but I never see them move when I pass them in the stores so they never piqued my interest much...They're like some of the lazy wolf fish...So Matt,how much did you pay for it?
