Alright, can you ID this?

[C L O W N K N I F E]

Any idea what the cichlid is at 5:43-5:50 in this video? I think its very cool. It probably is just a hybrid but I want to know what you guys think it is

I understand the video quality is not that great either which will make it harder for you guys to identify what it is

Oh and it must be a lake tanganyikan cichlid because its in waters with other lake tanganyikans

It does look like a hybrid, i haven't seen anything like that. I'm sure there has to be some Tankganyikan pro out there with information.

Lake Tanganyika is an old lake with very few hybrids. Fish looks like a young petrochromis species.

It could possibly be a petrochromis species, I searched online though for hours and still have not found any possible ID as to what it is. Hopefully someone knows what it is.
