In there grabbing some lotion for my awesome sun burn and decide to go over and look at the fish. They had this fish in a tiny little "display" tank where he looked miserable. All it did was sit toward the bottom and would move around a little when you got near the tank. Now I have it home and it's swimming around like crazy, hiding in the plants, and chasing the others around. It's about 4 inches long.
I was thinking it may be a Metriaclima greshakei but the more I look at he/she it doesn't look like it. Especially the white and black on the pectoral fins. The orange is very vibrant on the tail and dorsal but my room being bright orange, it kind of takes away from the color.

She's a lovely fish, I reach in the tank and she will swim right up to my hand and by my fingers and everything, even while holding. She's very people friendly and will greet you at the front of the tank when you walk by it.
