It looks to me like a Ob peacock but it could be an Ob zebra.

The OB Peacock

Thanks Andrew......so he/she could possibly mate with "Peacock" species , or a "Mbuna" speces ? If they are tank mates ? Sorry if I sound a little ignorant on this subject....but I am fascinated by these beautiful fish and want to learn everything I can about them. I find this forum.....and all you guys priceless when it comes to the info you submit! Thanks for your help !
