Identification "jewel Cichlid" possible hybrid wild caught

[xsameonex]

I was wondering if anyone can help me identify some jewels, but they seem like they are some sort of hybrid. Caught in a large hotspring in Western USA.

They definitely have the shape of Hemichromis Jewel but the color is throwing me off.

Depending on how long they have been there, could be 50 years or more (at least 100 or more generations)(I had Hemichromis guttatus, back in the late 1950s), whatever color variations were best suited to that environment, may have been favored over that time.
They look like normal guttatus to me.
There are feral populations in Cuatro Cienegas Mexico, and even feral populations in certain warm springs in Europe, released before people were aware of the damage feral species can do.

I would agree these looks like normal 'ol jewel cichlids to me
