    The pic is throwing me off, but it looks like a juvi yellowmargin triggerfish. Same spot patterns, but I am not sure if they have yellow when they are juvi's. I'd be more concerned about its eye. Its eye looks real cloudy in the pic.

    They are carnivores, they eat snails, crabs, worms etc.... They are not reef safe.
