That's a golden malawi cichlid (auratus). It's extremely aggressive (I used to have one).
You cn probably keep it with firemouths, but it will be the king. Also, when it's younger they have the yellow color-morph, but as they grow, if they are males they will turn brown/black (they stay yellow when young so the older males don't kill them THEY ARE MEANIES!!!).
Here's a site with mroe info.
