your fish is most definitely some kind of mutt but it's hard to say what it's a mix of. I can see traits of several different species. there is most definitely some Veija in your fish...most likely either bifas, synspilum or black belt. the striping on the forehead make me think either salvini or jack dempsey. the fact that the vertical barring is much more prominant on the back half of the fish as well as the shape of the mouth/jaw area make me think texas but there are no pearls on your fish. oh, the black on the chin is also a Herichthys (texas) trademark.
the one thing I can say with confidence is your fish definitely appears to be some type of hybrid.

cool, my first hybrid!!! oh man, hope those stripes and colors develop more...wonder how big he will get. when i first saw him at my lfs, he had a strong red tint around his gills. seems to have faded due to stress. i have him with a salvini and convicts right now. weird because the convicts are no't even messing with him...

woah there chief. Who is calling who dumbass
This thread is over two years old. And I'm about 99% sure that the fish in question is not a blackbelt. It could possibly have a small amount blackbelt in it but there is no darkening on the underbelly of this in the slightest.
