Cichlid ID

Hi guys - any idea about this fish?

 

[ibr3ak]

Aulonocara something, could be a young male or female because it lacks the color.

browse through the cichlid-forum.com's fish profiles.

Definately a Aulonocara Species.

I would say a young eureka red aulonocara, they are a selective bred strain of the red shoulder peacock cichlid.

I would also guess it is a male because of the false egg spots...

 

[ibr3ak]

Both males and females can have eggspots.

 

[Lady G]

I would guess a Jacob.

Aulonocara jacobfreibergi "otter point" or "Eureka"?

Thanks guys, it definitely looks like it could be a young Aulonocara jacobfreibergi:

Definitely male, females don't have color in the dorsal fin.
