Koran. I had one oh about 28 years ago. Great fish - I hope you realize how huge they get

Loads of personality too, mine ate out of my hand and followed me back and forth in the tank, like a puppy would.

This is an Emperor:

See how the stripes go into more circular shapes?

I'd say Koran, strictly based on the pics available on Live Aquaria

I was thinking Koran too, but he has some semi circle stripes too that were throwing me off. Didn't know if he may have just been mid change. He in a 7' tank so he will be good for a while. Thanks.

Here's the funny bit. The scientific name for a Koran angel, is Pomacanthus semicirculatus.

You don't need to speak Latin to make the connection.
