I'm not sure what this is. He was labled as a "assorted mbuna" at a LFS when I got him 6 months ago. I've checked other sites but I cannot come close to anything. Possibly a hybrid?
Help to ID this mbuna

Looks like it is possibly a Metriaclima greshakei (Albino)-

You are most likely spot on. I missed that one when I was looking at that site. Thanks for your help!
Thanks! He pretty much runs the left side of the tank. Have a great day!BarroomHero;2771054; said:

Mine is my favorite of all my cichlids.

I've heard them called red top albino zebras as the common name i have 2 of them too they might breed soon once I get my other dominant red zebras out of the tank. I wonder if 2 albinos will make all albino babies?
