Went to my LFS and saw this pretty nice looking Cichlid.... I asked the sales person about it they said someone brought him in and couldnt keep him anymore and told them it was a flowerhorn, Picked him up for 5 bucks and need help identifying. Thanks

Yep, it's a ZZ flowerhorn. Looks to be a fader. So the rest of the dark background colour on it's upper half should disappear leaving similar colours to the bottom half of the fish.
