Last week I went to the lfs and found a beautiful African Cichlid. It was in a tank that said "All Cichlids $12.99". The guy that sold it to me said that it COULD be a Johanni. I went back a couple days later and my sister in law bought the same specie of fish and that sales guy said that it wasn't a Johanni. What do you guys think? I know, I have asked people before to try and decide if my Johanni's are really Johanni's. BUT, this is a different one. The other two were wiped out during the Hexamitosis outbreak. I think that it is one, but then again, I could be biased. I have my mind set that it is a Johanni until someone more experienced can tell me that it's not. Please, help ease my mind on this. The pic was taken with a flash so the colors are dulled quite a bit.

Also, I added another pic. The other big guy was bought from the same store. He was also in the tank marked "All Cichlids $12.99". Noone could tell what he was. I have been trying to figure out what he is, but haven't been successful. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it.
 
That's exactly what I thought Chillin. I haven't ever seen that profile before. If I had, I would have definately known it was a Johanni for sure. The other one has my mind boggled.

Kudo's to you for being on the ball tonight! :D
 
Well, I don't know anything about Africans so I'm no help here, but just wanted to tell ya congrats on the beautiful new fish! :mrgreen:
 
Nope, not a yellow lab. She's not completly yellow. Mainly white with a hint of yellow.
