Pinecone soldierfish (Myripristis murdjan)

They look visually similar to M. berndti, which the easiest thing to look at to distinguish the two is to look at their lower jaw.

M. murdjan have a their lower jaw project equal to the upper jaw (Compared to M. berndti which are slightly longer), though a more reliable distinguishment is that this species have a deep red dorsal fin (According to Reef Life Survey). Jakarta Aquarium have both M. murdjan and M. berndti.
