the face really looks like a synspilum, body color is almost Texas like, but I don't think it is. Got that blue in the anal fin, this is a tough one. My guess is micropthalmus, it might be a parathraps though not vieja. The thing is that the parathraps and vieja species change a lot in looks between juvies and adults so its a tough one.
In these days where random hybridizing is so commonplace, I believe it is nearly impossible to ID almost any generic cichlid with simple photographs, so unless it has totally obvious markings (unlike the photos you shared) or know its provenance, you cannot in any certainty call it anything specific.
But since micropthalmus has been suggested, below are a couple photos of some from a respected breeder, I trust for you to compare. I cannot tell what yours is.

above and below, young synspilum/melanurum to compare.
And also be aware, that a variant in a location 20 miles away from another of the same species, may have very some different characteristics
