You Lunatic... Thats a FISH

That's pretty close to what I was looking for!

Actually, I'm leaning more toward the scientific name of this fish.

A juvenile in the mottled phase. Specifically...Lachnolaimus Maximus

Family: Hogfish/Wrasse - Labridae
Size: 1 -2 ft. Max. 3 ft.
Depth found: 10-100 ft.

Here's an adult...

And another showing a paler phase...
