Please ID this cichlid. I've seen them in walmart for over 3 months now, and always wondered what species it was. They were around 3 1/2" long and a tan, very light brown color (not orange as the picture shows)
Could this be a Neolamprologus brichardi ?
Thank you.

no, it's not.

Looks exactly like a Brichardi, but I didn't think they had yellow ones.. You said it was a very light brown color, which is what the Brichardi's are, but I can't see how the camera changed it that much. Your best bet would be posting in the African Rift section..
 
If that dorsal fin is yellow and its body sort of like beige in color then that fish will be a Neolamp. Brichardi-Daffodil. They're from lake Tanganyika. Like that hard water.
