Trying to ID cichlid- any ideas? (PICS) - Page 3 - Aquarium Advice

I really think they are male and female too, JRagg. They are not hybrids, I just got lucky and found some apistos for once. I've never even heard of Bolivian/GBR hybrids, and I'm fairly certain that it wouldn't even be possible for a Bolivian/con cross. They look exactly like the pics I've seen, once I had a species name to Google. I'm not surprised that the female isn't showing breeding coloration. She's tiny. These fish are still juveniles, so I wouldn't expect them to look like adults.

I have to change my earlier remark, upon closer inspection, they are definately male & female. Also get my vote for being a non-hybrid.
