I'm going to take a guess and say that its a male Macropharyngodon meleagris. I'm not 100% sure on it maybe someone else can chyme in.

I'm thinking it's M. ornatus since it's missing the ear spot.

im not sure if this is the right forum to ask.. but i find my leopard weird today... its mouth are always open... it still eats some pellets but not that active in fighting for it compared with before... i hope someone can shed some light... is this normal? its mouth are always open and its gills are beating every second... beating means close open... thanks again...
