Seller suggested it could be a flowerhorn but it doesn't really look like one to me. I guessev Veija X flowerhorn but I'm not even sure if thats possible. Any suggestions?

i dont think it is a flowerhorn at all. I think it looks kinda like it has synspilum cichlid (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=synspilum+cichlid&spell=1).

Looks like a Bifa to me.

I'm not real good with the Parathreps though so I would wait for someone that knows them better to confrim.

My guess is Paratheraps breidohri.

I'm thinking Synspilum

red head cichlid is a common name for synspilum

Thanks.
It looks a bit different to all the other large redhead/synspilum I've seen here, much more yellow in colour and has more of a nuchal hump.

It's a Vieja Synspilum male.
