Identification Help

Saw this fish at our LFS and was wondering what type of fish this was. Thought it was algae but it had eyes! You can kind of see them in the left area of tge pic... barely. Was just curious as this was just impressive to see in person!

Agree with Matt. There was a recent thread here at R2R. Try the search for scorpion fish
