^ I really have to disagree. I use to have a trio of metriaclima greshakei and they look nothing like the one in the picture. I've seen some variations on this species but the don't have the black around the tail fin or along the top.

well you could be right..especially since you had them yourself.. still looks zebra to me..

I still say Pseudotropheus sp. "Elongatus Mpanga", though that may not be the current name. They seem to change a lot.

Here's a picture:

In the wild

Comments:Males aggressively patrol their territories. In the wild, they feed by nibbling from the algal mat in a manner similar to Labidochromis spp. Males lack any black markings in the dorsal fin and females are brown to dark brown without any trace of black markings. The orange color, as in all cichlids, can vary from orange to red depending on diet.very close?
