what kind of cichlid do you see here?

[rockinfour]

so i got a free 55 with everything and it included three fish: an oscar, a pictus cat and this cichlid they told me was a jack dempsey. the oscar and this cichlid had hith. the oscar was wasted and died within 24 hrs. the pictus was tore up but he's now fine and all fins are growing back nicely. this one has recovered from the hith but still isn't eating right. it's always scared and hiding in the pot. i don't think this is a jack. it looks more like a red terror than a jack. can anyone id this fish. i will try to rehome this fish and i would like to know what i have so i can get it into the right hands. regards, r

No such thing as a false Festae...you're thinking of false red terror. :)

It's an Amphilophus Uropthalmus.
