Hi Xsevi,

That is an immature fish. Identifying is very difficult in general, and more specifically with just this photo. What would be most helpful would be (if the fish is captive bred) to see photos of the parents, or (if wild caught) to know where the fish was caught.

Cheers, Eric

I'd say it needs to grow about 4-6cm before you can begin to guess what it is.

HTH,
