Nice fish! Supposedly they are very hard to keep alive as they eat mostly live food. Good luck with him!

 

[Netta Fish]

I didn't think ther
potter was a leopard, they are from Hawaii. his one is from the indo pacific.

I guess choati and leapard are the same thing but here's a picture I found on google search

Looks alot like the Ornate Leopard wrasse

"Leopard" is a fairly generic term, used to describe several closely related species of wrasses.

 

[FishLipz]

Yeah, after looking at the pic Id say ornate

 

[Aquaph8]

Ornate is probably a good guess but it's really hard to tell from your pic.

 

[ReeferBean]

Yep I think Ornate as well.
