Question Unicorn Tang Identification?

I'm not sure if this thread belongs here, but I'm trying to identify
one of my unicorn tangs. It's still a juvenile.
I'll post the details:

It has a silvery light color on the bottom, a light greenish silver on the top. It has a blue mouth, it's face and the rest of it's body is covered in light blue patterns/spots. The end of it's tail has a gold/whiteish highlight, that only runs through the middle. When it hides in rocks, it develops a very dark green/brown color, a thick dark line between it's eyes.

If any of you want to see a video of it, please follow this link:


Thanks!
Khris

Just like that, thanks Brad. I was wondering
if it was a Vlamingii or a Spotted one...
