I don't think its an intermedia, because here it is side by side with an intermedia..

I don't think it's an Intermedia but of course I could be wrong. When I saw it in person and from pictures you posted the colors and stripe pattern just differs? Now with the other one gone has it's colors and stripe pattern changed?

Could be either of the two noted below.

Cichla intermedia "Orinoco"
or
Cichla intermedia "Ventuari"

Cool, or I can just pick him up tomorrow and take pictures of him in my tank =-P ... :naughty: :drool:

Sweet, just don't forget the Azul?:naughty:
 
looks like a sub dominant intermedia to me... xingus are a bit diff and have a diff shape.. youll deff be able to tell the differance when it gets larger but right now i would say that is deff an intermedia
 
sorry to twist this thread but ive never seen a xingu are they a hybrid ive never heard refrence of these guys in books are they in the amazon?
 
not a hybrid but their own species. they are hard to come by .. Darren has a few ..check out the cichla i.d thread i think there are some pics in there
