Cichlid Identification

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looks like a Venustus (sp?) to me...
 
The markings are way different as are his fins. The top stripe is a light yellow.

I think it's a SA Cichlid as he's not that colorful to be African.

The LFS had him labeled as a Firemouth and he had a red belly like a FM in the store but I have had him a month and his belly hasn't been red yet.
 
Certainly looks like some african species to me. Try posting the pic over in that forum, and see if you get anyone who knows for sure. BTW... NICE oscar, dude!
