I don't think this is right. The asker's fish has a brown tail, no golden spot/stripe on its back and very different "fluoro" markings. The asker's fish was caught in a river but yours lives in the sea.

@DavidRicherby maybe if the asker added many pictures from different sides, I can see the blue color under the fish eyes which says everything ..

There's only one photo available and it already shows significant differences from your suggestion. Having more photographs of the unknown fish can't make it look more like a neon velvet damselfish.
