I picked it up as a Rainbow Geophagus but I have never seen nor heard of it.
Here it is sorry for the low quality.

Thanks, I am trying to get some info on it but first I need a name lol.
 
Ahh, ID'ing Geophagus is always tedious.

Looks like it could be a juvenile brasiliensis, or others that look similiar on cichlid-forums profiles are Gymnogeophagus sp. "Blue Neon" or possibly Guianacara sp. "Red Cheek".

Honestly, really hard to determine juvenile Eartheater species.
 
stocky body does like gymno...

But it looks to me like a meridionalis species... GOOD FIND! they color up nice...
