Mystery fish help

[Lancaster84]

Found this guy in my tank today never seen him before ... The tank was given to me a few months ago by a co worker. I removed everything, changed substrates and planted it . This one must have been trapped in the hollow White deckoration and I think my frontosas freed him when they dug beneath. He has never been seen till today . Crazy. Can anyone identify this fish?

What the hell.. he must be one hell of a survivor if you've never seen it LoL

Im am not good with Iding, but some kind of cichlid maybe?

Yeah the tank was established when he gave it to me but we drained it and I redid almost everything . He had to have been in the white ornament. It has a 1" hole in the bottom and a niny hole in the top . He must have been living on algae. I'm gonna name him lucky. Thank goodness the frontosas like to dig.

It looks like a Neolamprologus Buescheri..

I agree with Pitt; N. buescheri "Gombe" to be more specific, IMO. Check it out:

Yep that's him. Thanks can't find him now. He must have gone back into that ornament.
