Maybe some type of hawk fish?

It is perching and the eyes look like a hawk fish's but it also swims and hovers unlike any hawkfish that I've ever seen.

Pixie hawkfish, without the normal red & black color? Just guessing here. Have you had him long?

I actually just bought him. He perches on his pelvic fins instead of his pectorals like a hawkfish and he doesn't have spiny pectoral fins. I think it may be a cross breed with a hogfish. Just a guess though.
