Hey guys got me some new babies, they are about 3-4 inches. They are really beautiful but they have multiple traits that pont me to different types of bass. Anyways I was hoping for some feed back. The fish store said they got them from la viet or lac viet, something like that.

Wow very cool lookin bass. I Deff havent seen these b4
 
Look like they are monos with some orino or even kelberi. Having said that, there can be quite a lot of variation in monos. Either way interesting cichla
 
Very interesting, I'm sure many people are interested to know more about it.
 
They may be captive breed Cichla Mono's? Really to young to tell I am not so sure about the hybrid thing. They look Mono to me (I have yet to see someone accuratly identify a cichla at 3-4 inches). But there seems to be a team of 12yr old Cichla experts who really know there stuff. GL.
 
I will definitly post more pictures once they go into my 125g to GROW! Im hoping they are temensis x orino mix. That would be gorgeous but only time will tell. Thanks for the feed back I never would've thought of temensis.
