what kind of fish did I buy??

[Marino13]

The guy at the lfs said it was a skunk filefish, but he did not know alot about it. when i got home i tried to read up on it but there is no reference anywhere to a skunk filefish and the filefishes they did have looked nothing like this fish.

This fish is long and slender almost like a blenny, it is white with a pink hue and has a bright scarlet stripe running from his eye to his tail and the red almost fills the whole tail area except for the borders. the head is not as blunt as a blenny but close. it seems to be behaving so far but i am worried.

try looking up tilefish.

I would strongly advise against buying anything marine related without thoroughly knowing what you're buying and it's behaviors.

Maybe he's a poor, stupid Democrat and too dumb to know the difference between a filefish and a tilefish? Or maybe you just misunderstood him?

Maybe you don't know the difference between a filefish and a tilefish? I guess that makes you a Kerry supporter. :eek3: Nixon appointed Swiftboat stooge unmasked

Did it look like this?



That's a picture of Hoplolatilus marcosi, the red-stripe tilefish.
