Got a new cichlid today! Need an ID!

[lasvegasnights21]

Got this cichlid in today. I need an ID on this fish.

He or She is light purple/light blue, with a hint of pink in the light.-approx. 4.5"

Sorry about the stains on the glass, I need to clean it off.

some kind of Mbuna

Yes, some kind of Mbuna. Unfortunately, it doesn't remind me of any particular one (not that I'm an expert). Was it sold as 'mixed African'? It could be a hybrid, also. Sorry, I'm no more help than this.

Why buy a fish if you don't know what it is? It looks nice though.

 

[lasvegasnights21]

No, it was sold to me as an Aurora, but I am not really sure if it is one.

He had a list of fish that came with the auction, it was like this:

you will recieve 5 cichlids, kenyi, auratus, johanni, socolofi, aurora.

I knew what I was expecting but I dont know if it is an Aurora?
