Grouper ID!

[maxchinook]

Hey guys ...Today i got a new grouper at my work (Big Al's Shark Aquarium) I have absolutely no clue which kind of grouper it is. It has black and white horizontal stripes...and in the light the white sometimes has a yellow tinge. I will try my best to post a picture but in the mean time does anyone have a clue what kind of fish this is?

I could be wrong but it looks like a soap fish to me. We had one at the lfs I used to work at and it got big quick, it ate like crazy.

OK I am pretty positive it is a sixline soapfish. I just did a google search for "sixline soapfish" and they look the same. There is a lot of information on them. Nice fish, I really liked the one at my work.
