Saw this today at my LFS. Looks like some kind of flounder lol. Guy at LFS didnt know what it was(owner wasnt in today). Pls lmk if you guys know what it is and if its reef safe? It was in their frag tanks so i assume its reef safe.

I believe it’s a Zebra Flounder. But the thing with novelty ornamentals like this is that it can be incredibly difficult to determine the exact species. But that’s my guess.

I also want to add its eyes were both on the top of its head extended not flat like flounders usually are.
