Im thinking he thinks LA stands for los angeles?
Anyway i would guess that would be a male carpintis. females tend to have a black splotch on the top dorsal

There is also a large population of them in the lagoons at City Park, second link is the park.

My guess would be male, but not 100%.
Post a few more pix once your fish settles in.
