I've had her for 3 months now, and I'm as clueless as I've been since I've got her. The LFS only said she's a jawfish, but not what type. From what i can see, she's not blue spotted jawfish nor yellow-head or pearly :D

 
It actually looks a lot like this jawfish. From some quick research it looks like it's not commonly available in the hobby but has popped up on a few forums.

Solar Jawfish (Opistognathus solorensis)

Definitely a jawfish. Not sure what kind. Could be the Solar like reefs4life shows. I've been in this hobby for a long time and have never seen this one before.
