ID this cichlid please

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
the barring is not because of stress, its part of the pattern.

Lol nah thats not part of the pattern. Flowerhorn and other cichlids throw up bars usually when stressed but also in dark tanks, breeding, or just because.

Or because they are juveniles. It's pretty common for some species of cichlids to show the barred pattern as young fish.
