the yellow @spotfin posted is Cirrhitichthys aureus
No worries. There are so many names, sometimes same fish is known by 3 or 4 names. Thats why since I got into business I always check the scientific name, they never changes.Thanks for the correction. I’m more an Acropora/Ricordea person than fish.
