Help I.D. my new monster?

[Beetlebug515]

So I picked this guy up today for a decent price ($30), but I've already forgotten the species name that was labeled on the tank. Can you guys help me out?

I should note that the fish is about 8 inches long.

Looks umbeelievable

 

[Beetlebug515]

HA! I see what you did there. Very clever, but I don't think its an umbee. At least it doesn't look like any umbee I've ever seen.

Not an expert on umbees but that's the only thing that came to mind

Good looking fish

Whatever he is, $30 is a good price for just about any live 8" fish, let alone something with colors like that.

I agree, spectbilis. Been looking into them for one of my tanks. $30 is a steal, my LFS has 3inchers going for $30.
