I got these guys a couple of months back as just "kelberis" however I'm trying to find out if any of you can see any clues as to where they could possibly be from. The guy I got them from has no idea as well.

I'm pretty sure they are not bahias because I own one and it looks nothing like these kelbs.

Any help or inputs will be greatly appreciated. :)

In that case you need to do a lot of ready buddy, lol jk! Google em. They're just a different species of pbass. One of my favorite and the most aggressive of all pbass, in my opinion.

Do you mean Orinos? Cichla Orinocensis?
 
I do not think they are orino at all. It is so hard to tell where kelberi are from until adult. If they are kelberi they should start to spangled the analysis fin by 12-13 inches. Some locations larger than that. Keep the pictures coming.
