liten kungsfisk/redfish

Explanation:
I Nordstedts Stora engelska ordbok står bl.a. kungsfisk (större).
Här är annars en länk (två olika sidor) där den kallas för mindre kungsfisk.

Det verkar som om den kallas för redfish ibland också

redfish

Explanation:
Om man slår "redfish" på Wikipedia, så visar det sig att det är en term som kan användas om många olika sorter. Beror på var den lever, vad för sorts text det handlar om etc.

röd trumfisk

Explanation:
In North America, a red fish (as in blackened redfish), is a red drum. There are several kinds of "redfish" around the world, and the North American and Eurpean varieties are different. Since you live in the US, I assume that you're writing about a redfish from North American waters. If not, then the other suggestions work fine.
