The scientific name is Epinephelus lanceolatus, if you search for that you will most likely end up with better information. The thing about the fish is it does look cool when it is young but do note that the fish lives in saltwater and gets simply gigantic.

I have been told they are freshwater as well, is that true?

semi true

they can survive in freshwater

but need to be in full saltwater as adults

Theres pics of one in fresh - with one of those reef photo backgrounds, just to confuse the poor thing - over on aquaticpredators.com . Don't think anyone really knows how long they can just stay in fresh... the guy with the pics says many years.
