Hello again my helpful friends! Can anyone identify this cichlid? He/she is the only one I don't know about!

Oh, yeah! I'm working on getting the Pics of the tank posted so ya'll can see what you helped out with... *SUPERSMIL

Nice, like the rockwork. No idea on that idea....the pics are a bit small and the water a bit to cloudy to really tell right now.

 

[JimMelAddie]

Yeah, they pictures are a bit small. They came from a camera phone, yeah I know! The water really isn't cloudy. It is just quite aerated. All of the tiny bubbles make it look cloudy, especially from a camera-phone. In person, it is actually quite clear.

I'll try to get some better shots from a better camera.

yeah camera phones arn't to good for taking pics o fish

It looks like some type of Malawi haplochromis, possibly Sciaenochromis fryeri.
A clearer shot would certainly help but for the meantime why not try looking through some of the profiles on cichlid-forum.com?

Okay! Found out what it is. It's a Blue Malawi.

 

[straitjacket]

Blue Malawi? That's a new one .
Got a scientific name? *twirlysmi

 

[JimMelAddie]

Malawi Chrysontus

Actually, I'm pretty sure that is incorrect...
