Can anyone help identify this fish, I bought it at the LFS they had it marked as a red devil but I don't think it is one, he or she is about 10.50 inches and is so aggressive it's very hard to vacuum it's tank, attacks the vac the whole time, this fish is much prettier than in the pics, 1 st 3 pics is what he looks like after the lights have been on for a few hours, last two pics are what he looks like when the lights just come on, when I first turn on the light in the morning he's a much darker orange in color, the whole fish is almost the orange color that is around his eyes but after about an hour or so (1st 3 pics in 6500k light) he lightens up and looks like it does in the first 3 pics but with much more of a beautiful pink hue, almost glows, I absolutely love this fish, does anyone have any idea what it could be?





 
I say rose queen as well. Never seen a midevil with such purple hues before. Nice fish either way!
 
Yup it is a rose queen
