Mystery Cichlid

[Deep Blue Sea]

There is this one cichlid at my lfs that has really caught my eye but I cant remember the name of it and I was hoping if I described it well enough someone could tell me what species it is. Its roughly 14" with a very deep body so and a very rounded head, it was a lighter grey color with a pink/red head. If someone could suggest names of cichlids that sound similar to this id be very appreciative

That's what it sounds like.

chocolate cichlid maybe

Just buy it, it'll be fine in your 75g. Then you can post some pics

blackbelt maybe

I was also thinking blackbelt...but without a pic it's going to be very difficult to tell. Try googling pics of blackbelt and synspilum and see if either of those look like the fish at the lfs.

My guess is Blackbelt, get it!

it looks like a blackbelt in terms of the body but its much more grey with a red head kinda like an upside down firemouth
