ID

[snowman17]

So after giving them some time to grow and color up a bit more posting again for id there's 3 of them and two have a bit more of a blue tint. So I think the two smaller ones are male since the larger one lacks the blue tint.

Possibly a young pseudotropheus elongatus.

Here's another shot with two of them the third looks more like the one in the back

Still thinking pseudotropheus elongatus chewere. I had one a year ago, but had to rehome him due to aggression. Hukit ID'd mine.

 

[snowman17]

If so the bars on my guys need to grow much thicker

 

[snowman17]

Any more input

 

[snowman17]

Bumppp!!

 

[TheCommunityCichlid]

I'd agree but not sure on the collection point as many look similar

 

[snowman17]

So you agree with chewere. I just don't see it and I think I would have remembered if they were since the chewere has been on my to get list for the longest along with a few other uncommon mbuna.

I agree with elongatus not exactly on chwere

Look at this link bi feel its definitely ine of cynotilapia afra types (also called zebroides ) or pseudo elongatus.
http://vatoelvis.tripod.com/PsElongatus.html. I assume you have the mbuna link to look at the profiles of them all on cichlid forum?

My new Idea is pseudo elongatus mphanga.

 

[snowman17]

Yea I use the profile forum and thanks for your help
