Need to I.D. this guy...

[PDRed302]

Was looking around at my lfs today and noticed a duo of these guys.


Looks like some type of Vieja but I don't know much about them, so I figured I'd ask. Any info is appreciated, thanks.

The guy at the store said they appeared to have a bit of red on them when they first got them.

After a bit more research (rifling through pics on Google) this fish appears to be a tailbar cichlid (vieja hartwegi).

From what I've read as long as a pair isn't formed I shouldn't have a problem keeping this fish with my current SA/CA stock.

Anyone with any experience with these guys, please feel free to share.

Also, if you think I'm wrong on the type of fish it is, please chime in and let me know.

Thanks again!

Looks hartwegi to me as well.
