This is a Threadfin Butterfly fish.  It's really weird watching these fish eat off coral – they kind of lie on their sides and nibble away.   Sadly, there were quite a number of “dead zones” on the reef at our beach.  I worry that these will not always be here for us to enjoy, when you look at the rate reefs are dying off in the world today.  If there are no reefs, then you will no longer see these cool fish.  We also saw yellow tang (which are stunning), trumpet fish, moorish idols, Blue Cravalles, and triggerfish (I can't remember if they were Lagoon or Picasso triggerfish) – those were cool; one of them kept on attacking Chris' flipper.
