It's a juvenile going through the change.

You sure it's desjardini and not Pacific?

Almost looks like the pacific. But then again it could be desjardini juvi going thru its change to adult. Hard to tell. But looks to me more like the pacific.

Well, after studying it thoroughly for way too long. I'm going to stick with my original assessment. I blew up your photo and it looks like it has a slight case of ich, too.

Here's one just like yours. http://www.ultimatereef.net/forums/showthread.php?t=383731

Sometimes I'm wrong, but the Desjardini is a lot more yellow as a juvenile.
