No way buddy, the one in the link you posted is an Mbuna. The fish above in the pictures is a male Aulonocara (peacock).
I need more pictures, preferably with just tank light, if they come clear enough.
Ok took some more shots. Without the flash u cant really see him that well so i took some with, and some without.
well its definately Auloncara (peacock) but the species i just dont know.
one possibility is aul. hansbaunschi look here:

it also looks like an aul. stuartgranti.
disclaimer: im by no means a peacock specialist lol.. i dont keep them ( i keep malawi mbuna's) so maybe some ppl who keep peacocks can chime in here!

perhaps it will be a ruby red. Hard to tell, but something about he color in the nonflash that seemed red.
