This is how it go's i will post a pic and everyone try to get what it is. The first person who get's it right will be able to post a new pic for everyone to gess on. A few rules are that it can only be fish that can be kepted in a SW tank not fish that are in the deep ocean or have never been in the sw fish trade. Only pic's of fish that are alive will be alowed. So with that out of the way let's have some fun can you gess who i am?

nope, go fish :D, a hint, he likes his fingernails short and thin...
 
I'm headed back to the web but my second guess was yelloweyed filefish, (Pervagor alternans),
or a young fringed filefish, (Monocathus ciliatus) they get very different as adults
