My LFS got this unordered fish in today. No idea what it is. It's about 4 1/2 " long.

Looks more like a type of hogfish to me. Not sure which type though. I haven’t seen that one before.
 
Shape wise it looks like a Hogfish to me as well. It could be a juvie Yellow Candy.
 
almost thought it was some type of cigar wrasse but the more I look at it Id go with hogfish as well
 
Edit
Bodianus bennetti and really spooked?
 
You think? Maybe to color is off from stress, but the eye shape looks off to me as well. Might just be the angle of the pics I guess.
