I have been sharing this guy on other forums too trying to figure out what he is. He has always been blue and does darken or lightens up at will. 
Hybrid maybe but hybrid what?

Any answer you get will be a guess, you'll never know for sure what it is unless you were the one who bred it.
+ 1 I was just guessing. Where did you get it from?

I got this guy from a lfs that buy from several people locally. I hope order something like him if I can find out what he is. I got him when he was about 1.5 inches long and was starting to really get blue. I snagged him about a year because he was drab but had a beautiful blue face. He is now about 4 inches long.
The best guess you're gonna get is that he is of the johanni tribe.
Very likely a mix of several johanni type Melanohromis sp. as most on the market are these days.
M. interruptus and Pseudotropheus elongatus may be among the fish's lineage but there is no way to know.
