But now another problem has rised, propably just in my head, but still. I have a fear that my midas is actually an red devil. I tried to avoid that one as well. If i can ask, can someone give me an educated guess on the matter? I know the fish is small, but, just a guess. Please.

Really don't understand, why the pictures came twice. Well, no you can see it a bit more. And sorry for the bad photos, that SOB would not stop moving.
 
There is no 100% way to tell if your fish is a midas or red devil. Where did you get the fish? If it came from a big box store like petsmart, it is most likely a hybrid of the two, a midevil. If you got it from a reputable breeder like jeff rapps, I would trust what they sold it as.
The two fish are really very very similar, yours looks nice to me whatever it is.
 
Got it from a store, the store is basically the only one selling big cichlids in Finland. Well, you can order from a few stores, but this store is specialized in big cichlids and other predatory fish. I kinda knew, that there is no sure way to identify it, but needed to get that question out of my head. It is beautiful, love the charachter and looks, just hope it's a midas.
