ya the more I look at it, the more it looks like a mayan.

I would guess amph x myself, something not quite right for festae imo...

That fish is confusing....

It's not hybrid. Not Festae. It's a Mayan Cichlid.

Look at this bad bad one

That picture definitely makes it look Mayan to me. Either way, it's no my personal fish and it's still very shy, but seems to be a cool guy

Its a Mayan strain of some kind.... 1000% not Festae..... Festae have a MUCH smaller caudal spot and more bars along the body - 7 instead of 6.

Festae left... Mayan Right


Juvenile Mayan - mouth points upwards


Juvenile Festae - Mouth points forwards

I too believe that the fish in question is mayan.......

 

[Blue Bear]

1+ Mayan

Looks just like one I had a couple years ago.

Still like Mayans though underrated fish imo.
