Is it a Bartlett or Yellowstripe Tuka Anthias?

Please, would you identify my fish.
My LFS sold it to me as the Bartlett's Anthias.
Thank you.

I don't think those are Bartlett's.

Here is a picture of mine, but you can see in the background of this picture that even I ended up with "something" else when I bought them.

Oh, Welcome to R2R!!!!

Thank you, Poseidon.
I think mine are Tuka. I wish LFS did not make a mistake. Lucky for me they start eating frozen food on the next day. But I've read how hard was to keep this fish happy.

Welcome to r2r, happy someone was able to help you figure out what type of fish. At my local store I have only a couple of guys that I will trust for information, but even than I am constantly double and even triple checking information. With just starting my tank I have not made too many fish purchases yet, but I have used my phone on several occasions when looking at their fish to verify between what they have the fish labeled as and what I can find online.

Not a problem, I know for me with being new to the saltwater scene, along with past learning experience from keeping freshwater fish I take advice given at the store with a grain of salt and make sure to do my own research and checking. With the phones that most people have now a days it makes it a whole lot easier to be able to check on things when you are out and about.
