They resemble the Cichla sp. Rio Itaya more than the Guiana... They have almost all of the same markings, color, and body shape.... http://pachome1.pacific.net.sg/~corn/CICHLID_files/Cichla%20ocellaris%20ITAYA07.4-15M.jpg

I would say you scored if thats the case .I would love to see a 20 inch adult male that would be beauty!!!!!

That would be a pretty damn good score if in fact they were Rio Itaya. But, who for sure knows. Keep us updated on the progress on these fishes.
