Name that fish

Was just ordering something from DrsFosterSmith and saw this picture on the front page. Can anyone ID this fish?

I would have to agree.

Ahh! I figured it was an angel of some sort, but couldn't find a match. Googling bandit angel confirms your answer. Thanks.

You have to admit based upon the size... that you could think it was some kind of a fancy damsel. The fins and mouth throw me off a little.

I have asked Marine Depot and Drs Forest Smith to label the fish in their catalogues..unfortuneately..they haven't...but they should!
