Can anybody tell me what this fish is? It's about a foot long and I have no idea.

How big does it get? I found some more info on it and it seems interesting. Does anyone on MFK have one?
 
thats a nice looking odoe a little bashedup around the mouth but nice fins they get around 12-16'' in aquariums but get larger in the wild
 
What makes people think it is bashed up around the mouth? Those flaps of skin are meant to be there. Youu can see them (not that clearly) on this pic of mine.

Well im sure if you look at the pic you can see the mouth has a crack. That tells you that it does not look like the pic you posted.
That odoe is a great one with nice color.

I can't see any crack other than its nostril, and the edge of the flaps of skin coming up from the bottom jaw (which are bigger than on the pic of mine).
 
Try to click on his pic and it should blow up. His lip has a split. Atleast it looks like it to me :)
