Plectorhinchus chaetodonoides
Harlequin sweetlips (Plectorhinchus chaetodonoides), also known as Clown sweetlips or Spotted Sweetlips, is a saltwater fish that actually changes colors over its lifetime. The juvenile Harlequin sweetlips has a brown or tan base covered with large white spots with darker margins and have a lot of similar characteristics as a Clownfish. As the Harlequin Sweetlips grows older its whole body turns white, and it develops black dots.
