Wow tis truly a night to behold when Freackgecko is confused on a cichlid. But it doesn't look much like a standard cichlid, it looks native and wild not farmed.

Paretroplus damii maybe, based off the red tip on the upper caudal fun and the black lips

Thanks guys...m exited knowing that I have something unique...my LFS had them labelled as green terrors...so cant expect much from them[emoji39]

 

[fshfanatic]

I think this is a hybrid...mix of something...cause I really don't think we have any species or sub species of Paretroplus here in India...il let it settle down and post some more asap

 

[Mogurako]

I thought you got it from the LFS? Why does it have to be endemic to India now?

[fshfanatic]

Not endemic to India...but LFS's here are more into gold fishes and angles and some common cichlids...it took me 3 years to get a EBJD...moreover they were selling it labelled as green terror....n trust me...when they say green terror it always comes out to be blue acara's....so I am pretty sure either it is a hybrid or a local fish caught somewhere around..
