Could Someone ID this Fish Please?

We saw this fish at our LFS and didn't have a label. Could some ID it please.

Thank you. =)

Thank you =)

I still say there's too much blue to be a cuban and the top of the dorsal fin is tipped in red. Still looks like an EBJD to me.

A cuban has a shiny, reflective base color and the surroundings are blue, so that blue is not its actual color. I'd pick up that cuban in a heartbeat!

Have you ever seen an EBJD? This is obviously not one.

I used to breed Cubans and this is without any question, a cuban. They have red tipped fins when young as well as a violet sheen (which is noticable in the pictures)

It looks like a male to me,the females I've owned were always much darker...
