I finally started to stock my 45 gal. I bought these two from a lfs and the orange one was in a tank full of yellow and albino yellow labs. The tank was labeled as assorted african cichlids. I'm guessing this guy is just an orange yellow lab. Please confirm or correct me.

i don;t know actually, but i couldn't help posting its looks so cute, it does look a biit like a yellow lab, guess u will have to wait and see for ther suggestions
 
i don't know but he's cool. never seen one exactly like him.
 
Thanks I've had them for about two hours now and he seems very hyper swimming around the perimeter of the tank while my yellow lab just hangs out under the rocks. They're both about a 1/2 inch or so.

If i had to guess I would say it's a hybrid, very hard to tell of what two species. where did you get him? or her?
 
If the tank was "assorted", I would likely believe it is just a mix. Nice looking though.
 
definitely not labidochromis caeruleus (the guy in the first two pics) - its a nice looking hybrid of some kind.

the two yellow in the fish in the bottom pic - possibly yellow labs, can't really tell from those pics.
 
The yellow one in the bottom pic is a yellow lab, I was just showing them together. I bought them from petco.

Thanks for the help guys, we might have to see what it looks like after it gets bigger.
