    What is this? The fist store told me it was a yellow grouper but I don't think it is. It was stayed the same size for almost a year now. It was mean to my angel but I took it out for a little while and now they are friends. I'm going to up grade my tank and don't want a mean fish in there.
    Thanks.

    It looks like a pseudochromis to me.

    in either case a larger tank is a must, just sooner if its a grouper.
