I was watching my fish today and noticed a little movement by a rock, I thought I was crazy until I saw this lil guy swimming around. I have not seen any mating going on or anything, I have no idea where he came from. He was in my tank that has some africans (yellow lab, demasoni, etc.) a convict and two GTs. My GTs have spawned before, but this lil guy looks nothing like a GT. It has a more slender body like an african. Are africans inconspicuous breeders? Could it be they spawned and I didn't notice?
ANY IDEA WHAT THIS LIL GUY IS?

how big is he? Did you notice any of your africans holding or not eating? Thats a cool little surprise.
 
All of the Africans have been eating like crazy, this thing is so tiny, I don't know where the hell it came from
 
he has to be a month or 2 old... odd tho
 
you would have noticed if it was a convict breeding so i would say it is demasoni and prob a few months old the female could have had the eggs when you bought her or she missed picking one up in the gravel and bang there it is. if she wasn't holding it in her mouth she might have eaten the other eggs. time to play the waiting game to see in a couple months u should be able to tell for sure.
