Did I just buy what I think I did???

SCORE!! Exactly why I check the tanks on the P...Co & P...mart near me for mislabeled fish.

Even though I don't normally buy too many fish from them, I always have to look at them all. I bought the turquoise jewels from them because my LFS doesn't have any jewels at all. Every now and then they'll have a couple really cool fish

I know they are more sensitive to water conditions...anything else I should know about? The water param that they're in right now is Ph: 7.8
Nitrite and Ammo: 0
Nitrate: 5

Any issues with the water conditions I have?

  1. Herichthys carpintis, the lowland cichlid, pearlscale cichlid or green Texas cichlid, is a species of cichlid endemic to Mexico where it occurs in the Pánuco River drainage and the Soto La Marina River.

I dunno, though ive almost convinced myself that u have an ebjd....
 
My LFS has green Texas and they're about the same size but don't have the same markings or the turquoise spangles like these have. I'll try to get better pics today. The blue is showing much better now that they aren't so stressed

I bought another one yesterday for $4 :) I went to get plants because they were having a 30% off all fish and plants day and just couldn't resist buying the last one.

Hate to go against the flow and burst your bubble but they really don't look like EBJD to me. At least not the ones I have had. They have more spangles than the blue base coloring. Could you post some pics in of them in the tank to know for sure?
