Let's have another go at this fish ID!

Marcus,

Someone's judgement that I trust very much felt you were on the money. Aul x Tilapia

Honestly, I can't figure out why these people think that fish is a Red Zebra. I mean it REALLY does not look anything like a red zebra. lol.

Yea I realize there are tilapias native to the lakes, thats why I said most were native to continental africa. And yes, it looks nothing like a red zebra lol, the only thing thats similar is the pale white coloration. And its not S.A. or C.A; no American cichlid has egg spots.

I guess it could be a Tilapia x Aulonocara...I dont know enough about them to really say otherwise, but they seem too dissimilar for it to work, plus there really aren't that many aulonocara features that I can see...
