I lost this guy about 6 months ago and was looking to get another one, but couldn't find out what they were called.
Can someone ID this scorpionfish?

How big was he? He's a Scorpaenopsis macrochir or the larger version Scorpaena diabolus.

He was about an inch and a half. He also had yellow and orange under his pectoral fins

That size doesn't help ID unfortunately, for it's not an adult of either the macrochir or a diabolus. You're guy is so small, it will be hard to ID him because he's features aren't in the right proportions.... starting with the eyes.
This was my little macrochir.

I think the one you had is the same one I used to have, I'll call my LFS and ask if they can get one. BTW, how big do they get?

They stay small at 3-4 ".
