I got this guy about a week ago.  He was listed as a Hawaiian Turkey Fish, but does anyone know what he is specifically?  I've tried to find another name or even pics of him online but haven't had much luck.  All I've found is that he is some kind of scorpion fish.  He's about 5" long, stays on the bottom of the tank supported by his fins, eats krill, and doesn't really like the MH lighting.

Turkey fish seems to be another name for lion fish and this seems to be the same family but we aren't sure exactly what it is.

It is certainly NOT a Hawaiian Turkey fish from their picture!  Good luck on the ID.
