It's a Neoglyphidodon crossi juvie.... a Cross' Damselfish. It won't look like that when it gets older but will remain very striking.

They grow to be a decent size damsel... like 5" I believe... I have no idea what their temperment is like compared to others... but no damsel is a model citizen, so I would expect the worst.
