I'm pretty sure it's a stiphodon but not sure which one. They're a lot bigger than the stiphodon percs I had. Any help in IDing is appreciated. They haven't been changing colors so I can't tell by that. Here is the photo of it (best one I could get):

It is a stiphodon. Looks like the species(or group of sp.??) most commonly referred to as "rainbow sp."

Yea, I thought so too. It was labeled as a 'marbled goby' at the store. Haha, hopefully it will show some of its colors soon to see if it is a 'rainbow'.

If you haven't already, have a look through odyssey's thread.

Yes, from his thread and the information from seriouslyfish.com, it looks to be a 'rainbow'. Now, I just need to find females as I only have males right now

Does anyone know a good resource for identification of Stiphodons? I really fancy getting some but know that they are often wrongly labelled in fish stores. I am especially interested in S. semoni.
Thanks
