Is that red & white or red and yellow?

From what I can tell, it appears to be a Peppermint Hogfish...

I have a lowly (but lovely) Peppermint Hog. I picked mine up at Tropical Island for what I thought was a song ($80), but not so much in comparison to your price.

The price you paid is insanely cheap IMO.

+1 looks like 'more common' peppermint hog...Unfortunately they darken up (lose the bright red)as they get bigger, mine is about 4" and is sometimes aggressive... BUT still a deal, for a nice fish.
