What is this, i dont even know if it is an African, but any how.
He is 2-3 inches, and is kinda shaped like a peacock, he is yellow, with a black stripe on his dosal fin and a black dot on his gill covers.

I would guess it is an Electric Yellow (Labidochromis caeruleus).

I believe it is actually the white morph of L. caeruleus, but definitely agree on the species.

Can you get a clearer pic? I don't think its a lab, not a pure one anyway.

I would also agree on the speices, but as suggested a clearer picture would really help out!!!

 

[rust9000]

OK thanks guys i will get a better picture.

 

[ogre929]

[rust9000]

If it is a yellow lab, is it and African cichlid??

If it is a yellow lab, is it and African cichlid??

Yes it is.

It looks like a yellow lab with some bad genetics..

PetSmart is famous for selling hybrid africans in the 'assorted cichlids' tanks.. I always saw these brown/beige labidos there..
