Could someone help ID this fish

[altimaser]

Actually, I will net him out tonight and take a pic out of the water. I really want to know what kind of Talapia it is. I was hoping it was a Butti. but it doesn't sound like it is.

That will not help.
Better side shot in the water.

They're less than an inch. Have you seen Butti babies?

I have seen young and old

I will figure out a way to get a better pic in the water ... they are mixed in a 125 with various other cichlids ... They were sold to me as Talapia Butti. , but the LFS owner was not sure. Only paid .99 for them so no big deal if there not Butti's.

No Problem, any help is appreciated

Def. not buttis - it's between T. mariae (unlikely) and more likely Cutteri. That's why I asked for a better side shot.

don't look like cutteri to me. sorry.


however it is hard to tell. we do need better pics.

Here are some new pics I took tonight. I was able to get closer this time.
