Fish Identification Help

It's defintly not a Salvini, but it's hard to determine what it is without a proper analysis. I was pretty sure it was a Jag x, but the most recent pictures show some Dovii colourations and markings, especially towards and on the anal fin. I'm slightly swayed towards some kind of Managuensis/Dovii hybrid. I believe his attitude would suggest a similar relation aswell.

How big is he?

100% not a salvini. I agree with most its a JAG/Dovii or a mix of something with a dovii or a jag. Its a Jagovii.

Seriously lol? Has no traits of either. Definitely parachromis, most likely mota w/ stress/dull coloration.

that's crazy. No Salvini will not get that big. Now given the size it singles out most. Definte hybrid with a Dovii cross Manguense.

Okay whatever you say boss. A few others mentioned the same cross.

Whatever it is it's not weed aka mota

It's a joke? Like how you lol?
 
What makes you guys think it's jag x dovii?

The photos with flash may be a bit misleading, does some strange things. I took a video of him but can't paste a link to the video since I've only been registered to the forums for a day. If you go to youtube and search "ZJP98" it'll come up, for anyone interested in a better idea. Thanks for all the feedback.
 
It's so black or at least appears that way. Jags and freddies are the only parachromis I've had with that kind of black. The body conformation looks like a male mota though.
