ID on this cichlid

Just wondering what type of cichlid you guys think this is.
When I first saw it i thought "Polleni", but I dont think so now.
A dark texas?
Female flowerhorn?

Because so many cichlids look similar to each other, a still photo, with the cichlid in much more enhanced lighting would help.

No worries. I just got this as a forwarded message, and was just wondering.

Some type of Texas hybrid. Probably unfaded red texas

I'm thinking mostly vieja, like synspilum/melanura. Could be a low grade or female kamfa resulting from ZZ flowerhorn x vieja. (Not all of them are colorful and kok-y)
Excellent video, and I love the fish's personality!

Reminds me of a Texas or some herichthys cichlid, looks dark because of stress.
