Tilapia, looks like? I did a Google search. Also found this, which is interesting!

Folklore: Although an exciting new fish to American fish markets, Tilapia traces its origins to the Nile River and has been farm raised around the world for decades. Legend says that Tilapia was the fish Christ multiplied a thousand-fold to feed the masses.

Yep, that's the stuff! It's actually a very mild fish, so if you don't like 'fishy-tasting' fish, it's a good one. Takes marinades and sauces quite well. I've done a Cajun marinade and broiled it, and it's yummy!
