hello i recently bought a small baby fish that the employees said was a convict but i'm not so sure. it has some black lines going verticaly through it and on his anal fin (the fin on the bottom near the tail fin) is yellowish. and he does have a black spot on his body too. sorry i can't upload any pics right now.

thank you
 
yeah...wrong forum too...but need pics to help at all.
 
oh i figured it would go somewhere in the cichlid forum
 
oh and i just found out what it is. its a severum was $4.99 is that a good price for him? hes like quarter-nickel size.
 
pics!!
 
ok i just got my camera to work so i'll put some pics up if i can get him to hold still lol
