Trying to identify the top-right most mbuna in this picture, to the right of the kenyi.

I know most of the others, Fusco on top, kenyi, peacocks including Rubescene Clown, ruby red, eureka red, and red top lwanda, as well as the one juvenile Aurora and white calvus. It's just that one blue/yellow that i've never been able to ID.

I had seen another ID thread pointing to Greshakei, and thought it was similar just all photos I've seen of those tend to be a lighter blue and fainter bars.

I have seen mine get much lighter than in this pic turning almost white body and blazing yellow finnage when one of my yellow labs went gravid and he started displaying against the male lab. The lab male won out and I got to watch them breed. female is currently in QT holding for almost 4 weeks now. will strip her this weekend it she doesn't spit before then.

Thank you for the replies! :)
 
My greshakei did the same thing when my albino red fin zebra would mess with him

Yeah, he's currently the largest fish in the tank, but will probably be pulling him and the kenyis within a few months as the peacocks keep growing out. I had bought him, the kenyis, and the zebras when I first finished cycle on that tank from the local assorted bin, but then got a massive shipment of juvies from my brother who's a dist. in Salt lake city. Basically loaded up the tank with his breeds. I don't mind having boistrous fish, but the juvies I have mean a lot more to me than he does. Anyone near Fresno want a couple mbuna?

On another side note, now have 15 Elec. lab fry spit. 14 look good, 1 looks like it never developed eyes although it's the most aggressive swimmer of the bunch.
 
Looks like a hongi. But need some experienced keeper to id
