Convict Cichlid or HRP?

I have this fish that was sold to me as a "pink convict", but his fins are really orange and I was wondering if she is actually a pink HRP.

What's crazy was at a lfs and was looking at a pink convict looked nothing like yours.

I’ve seen some pics of them like that - it’s just a regular white convict to my knowledge. It really is cool looking.

I’d love to get a big male one - looks just like a Midas!

I agree! I call them Mini Midas haha
I’ve got a male that’s about 4.5 inches. I call him Clyde, he had a Bonnie but my buttikoferi ate her. Thought I had enough hiding places for them and they’d be too quick for her but I guess I was wrong
I’ll see if I can find some good pics of him

Many if not most in chain and lfs are not pure. I would say yours definitely has some hrp influence somewhere down the line, It just has that look. But mostly pink convict. Very nice aquarium strain convict ?.

Oh yes the leuscistic cons can vary from white, pink, to even orange. Here is a white.
