Is the parachromis managunese and the nandopsis manguense the same fish? Im looking to buy a jag but I always thought the genus was Parachromis...the store has nandopsis listed as the genus.

It's parachromis as far as I know.Lfs usually label them as whatever they get them as,which is not always correct.
New world cichlids genus has as of late been in a constant state of change.
Are there any of us here that remember when most everything was "cichlasoma"?
Or how about when octofasciatum was biocellatum?

The store owner may simply be old school. I recall the genus Parachromis popping up around 1998, I think typed by a guy named Busse. I don't recall the history of Nandopsis but I believe it held all the guapotes for a while before the Parachromis genus became more generally accepted, I believe around 2000.
