My first impression when I saw the pictures was Oblique Dottyback. But you said it is 7" to 8" long. That rules out a lot of dottybacks. The only dottyback that I can think of reaching that size is fire-tail dottyback. Good thing you have something keeping it in check. Dottyback that size can do some damage

yeah, he's more like the fire-tail dottyback. I sometimes think he looks more like a grouper than a dottyback.

The closest I've found is an Australian multi colored dottyback. Mine looks pretty much like those, however they say that a mature Australian Dottyback grows to 4", whereas mine is closer to 8". Maybe a mutant?
