Guess That Species!!

[dalto]

It's not a hybrid is it? The colors don't look natural.

Not a hybrid or a hormoned up fish. Just a nice example of this species.

There is a little bit of white balance applied. Here is the pic without the white balance.

Nope....

I think you all should forfeit your turn every now and then.

 

[dalto]

OK, here is the first hint.

It is a cichlid

I'm stumped all of the fish it looks like don't show color even close to that one.

Is it a cichlasoma of some sort? I MAY HAVE THIS ONE!

Sweet! A Gillie stumper.

Indeed, now you guys can stop searching through all those tetras.

Is it a cichlasoma of some sort? I MAY HAVE THIS ONE!

It may have been in cichlasoma at one point, it isn't anymore though.

If you have a guess than throw it out there. An old name is fine.

 

[Sillyfishies]

Well it reminded me a lot of a Cichlasoma trimaculatum.

 

[dalto]

Well it reminded me a lot of a Cichlasoma trimaculatum.

Nope, not a Trimac.

It is a Central American cichlid though. That should narrow it down.

Nope

Paraneetroplus synspilus?

Negative

 

[Fishperson]

Paraneetroplus Hartwegi?

 

[Sillyfishies]

I'm basically just trying to find a central american cichlid that has blue eyes.

 

[Fishperson]

Lol yes same here.

There's quite a few but none of them fit. It's either very rare or one of the many centrals I never bothered with

Archocentrus spilurus? Or cutteri?

Thats all three of my guesses this round.
