New fishies labeled as red terror is it a Festae or a mayan? unlabeled, thinking Vieja bifasciatus?

top one is a mayan . 100 % bottom im not so sure . Its some kind of veja

 

[Jmart159]

The first fish is definitely a mayan the second I'm not too sure about.

 

[Tyler_Wentworth_150]

I figured, good news is that I actually like mayan cichlids

 

[MP_cichlid]

ya mayan and it looks like a vieja synspilus to me

 

[Tyler_Wentworth_150]

That would be something else if I scored a synspilum for $5 haha

I think hybrid for the first one. mayans at that size the barring should out more. very washed out. and the blue spotting dont spell mayan. (for me that is. getting frsky lol)

second one usual vieja hybrid etc. cant tell till some size gets put on

Kinda figured, thanks for the input everyone. The first one his stripes are basically blue iridescence in the front half of the body and gradually increase to black. Insanely fast and voracious eater. The Vieja is kinda a jerk, bites fins for no apparent reason. My amphilophus put a stop to that though, Only took one shot at the Viejas to make its point.rude boy, tank boss punk- assistant tank boss.
