I shall have to show you my workflow.

Step 1: Look at fish, NFI what it is
Step 2: What else do we have to work with? There's a dude in the BG.
Step 3: Ive seen that smile before. where? Scratch head furiously.
Step 4: Take a nap
Step 5: Come to realise, thats a still , from a youtube video that Cavy posted a while ago and its his handsome mug in the picture.

Step 6: Find Video.
Step 7: Scroll through comments, Coz they dont name the fish, Briggsy calls it a Vampire fish? I cant submit that on a forum
Step 8: Helpful tip, some calls it a hogfish in the comments.
Step 9: Look up , Cross reference
Step 10: We have the answer
