About 2 years old, 3.5 to 4 inches tip to tip. Think he may be a hybrid but not sure.

I believe that is a Labeotropheus fuelleborni ''OB" (orange Blotch)

Well, from Tigirs's pic, I see the ol' classic "Labeo Lip" over bite...and it's too deep in the body and not elongated enough to be Labeotropheus trewavasae...so that's why I went with Fuelleborni....I have one that looks very similar in my show tank.
