hello,,I bought a new african,,from walmart ,wich I dont like to do but it looked kinda neet,,it was in a mixed african tank,,I put him in my mixed tank of odd fish ,I use my 55 to grow fish,,he is not meen, I'll put a pick up he's about 2 inches and eats like crzy,,he has a blue tint over silver,,I'm hoping he turns more blue like peakcocks do as they get older ,and he has orange fins,his colors look a little washed out in the pic,,

Copadichromis borleyi would be my guess. The females and young are just like the picture you have. Once the males get big enough they change color quite a bit.
