bought as nicaraguense they are not, but was told maybe some sort of vieja/paratheraps. the tank they were in is now labled as nourissati? looks similar but not sure

vieja hartwegi
 
Not nourssati, not even a Amphilophus, Definently a Paratheraps, but face is wrong for Hartwegi, may be a hybrid. Ken
 
yeah not sure on these i like them theve put on good size since ive bought them and are the least aggressive fish in the tank the chocolates go at it more than these do
 
I think it looks kinda like a juvi GT or Firemouth.

i think you are way off

i agree with Ken, looks like a hybrid vieja
 
ya no way its a gt or fm not close. they look mostly zonatus from what ive seen with less markings
 
they arent sal's either the lighter color one about 5" the smaller bout 4" sals have a lot more color and are generally more agressive.
