Cute little fishies!! Wait until they all get a little bigger, thats when they will look awesome.

Is that a Festae or Mayan (Uro)? Either way, thanks for sharing.

Pretty sure the first pic is a Mayan. Nice pick up though!!

Yes, not a festae but definately a mayan, exCichlasoma urophthalmus. The thick bar coming down into the gill area (mayan) rather then attatching to the adjacent bar around eye level to from a y-bar (as in a festae) is a dead give away for this fish being a mayan, amongst many other traits.

what will it look like when it gets bigger? and approx size? and male or female?

 

[hairdog]

harder to sex mayans as the male and females look similar. I don't believe they get as big or as aggressive. not as colorful as adults. max size just under a foot. check out this website for more info.http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/fish/Gallery/Descript/Mayancichlid/Mayancichlid.html
