Yellowtail Kingfish??
 
Or yellowtail scad??
 
No and no and the "recognized" common name does not contain the word "yellow" or the word "tail", go fish.
 
I'm running out of clues,
It was originally named as an Esox genus in 1834 but it is true salt water and it's name was corrected to the current one in the same year.
It lives over reefs and rocky outcrops at 5-65 meters of water and is a popular gamefish.
here is a picture taken at 13meters deph near Montague island, New South Wales, Australia in 1994.
They are on display at Adelaide's public aquarium.
They are sold at a dockside fish market in Portland Harbor, wrapped in day old newspapers, by a guy named Mike who smokes cheap cigars and has six toes on his left foot, his dog's name is Winston.

Well,,,,,maybe you should ignore that last clue.
If no one guesses I'll wait until noon Pacific time then post a different fish.
 
My last guess is something from the mackrel family...other than that, and the hour I spent searching, I got nothing...
 
Long-finned pike (Dinolestes lewini), I'll post a new one shortly.
 
Here is one that some times shows up in fairly large tanks. I found them online for sale today at $37 each.
