I saw this fish am wondering what it was. I was looking to get one and am having a hard time identifying it. It looks like a damsel, but I'm having a hard time finding a match. I think it might be a pink smith damsel.

Its is Smith - Pink smith to be exact and rarely seen until recently. They are ORA raised and I believe Live Aquaria occasionally has them. The Pink Smith Damselfish, also known as Smith's Damselfish has a shiny silvertone to white body with pink coloration that highlights the outline. Thriving best in a trio or more, they should be housed in a 50 gal or larger tank with adequate hiding places to break up territorial behaviors. Offer this fish a variety of foods including spirulina brine, mysis shrimp, nori seaweed, LRS fish frenzy and flake food.
