What species is this fish?

 

[ewok]

we need another picture but at the moment i am guessing it's a hybrid

I am thinking this maybe an excichlasoma bocourti that is stressed. My reason is the gold color and vertical bars.

Check out greenterra photo of his Bocourti maybe for comparison.

I saw it, and not every cichlid is going to be an exact copy of the next. There are a lot of different varriartions to consider. Google images of bocourti and tell me every pic looks exactly like that one. A lot of the time colors and shapes will varry based on where the fish were collected from.
Still I could be wrong, but don't think it is a hybrid.

Their color and shape may vary some but no Bocourti have a red head that I'm aware of.

bocourti or hybrid with something else

Looks like a hybrid something mixed with Synspilum
