I was wondering if anyone had information onnthe fish in the picture.

Maybe some kind of Cardinal fish?

It's a type of soapfish Diploprion bifasciatus. They get pretty big, will eat anything they can fit in their mouth, but beyond that aren't very aggressive. They are quite hardy, but better suited for a fish only tank rather than a reef.

Thank you very much for your help.
