I know the top one looks like a moses perch/fingermark, but apparently they're something different (forgot the name though).

Also called Slender Leatherskin, Needlescaled Queenfish are silver with a blue/green dorsal area. They have between five and eight small grey oval marks along the lateral line, the first 4 to 5 making contact with the lateral line. The front of the short, soft dorsal fin has a black tip.
They grow to 510 grams and 60cms in length.
They are not rated as table fish.
In Australia, Needlescaled Queenfish are found from Exmouth Western Australia north around to Rockhampton Queensland.

I personally don't think this
I personally don't think this is a moses perch, while often refered to as moses perch (myself included) i think it is a black spot snapper (Lutjanus fulviflammus), to me a moses perch has different colouration, body profile and lack of stripes.
this to me is a "true" moses perch (Lutjanus russelli)
Just my 2c worth
