ID this Cichlid?

[MonitorSpiderCichlid]

I made a thread last night and no one had a clue of what this fish was. He was a little shyer last night then he was today. So I took some pictures of him. He was sold as a Festae, but to me it is no where close to one. Do you guys know what he is?

PLEASE?.. anyone?

Looks kinda like a juvenile haitiensis...don't take my word for it though. Definitely does not look like a festae to me.

Looks like a juvenile haitiensis...

No way a juvi haitensis.
It might be a ugly umbee or just a amphilophus hybrid or LG FH
