I think it's called Orange Roughy, or something close to that. It's salmonete in Spanish as well.

Don't think it is an orange roughy- that's a deep seafish- much deeper in body too.
Dictionary defininition comes up with
[font=CG Times (W1),Times New Roman]salmonete (var.-) red mullet, surmullet, goatfish, mullet[/font]
Doesn't look like a red mullet but perhaps another mullet species or goatfish

Not certain whether I've had that one- I've certainly eaten both red and grey mullet- I rather like fish :
