looks like a uro..
I disagree.. at this point but.. Still need another pic.. Show us profile of the fish .. Hopefully less stressed with the bars showing more :)
 
If those bars right behind the top of the head connect as a V or a Y you have RT If they don't... Uro

Color suggestes uro... But is stressed.. The bars look connected suggesting RT... Another pic please :)
 
Thanks guys i'll take another pic of the fish 2morrow..so u guys can help me determine what i have..i appreciate the help..btw what is a uro??is it an aggresive fish??

Mayan Cichlid Common name.. and more commonly mistaken for RT ....Uro=Uropthalmus I believe..
 
i agree a better pic is needed, but from looking i would say Uro because the false eyes on Uros are bigger than those on true Red terrors,

:iagree: The tail spot appears to be too high/big
