From the angle it looks like a jack dempsey to me. Where did you get it from,

I got him from petco. A lot of the cichlids they sell have no name. Only where they are from like: south American cichlid, African cichlid and so on.

I have to disagree. The face suggests hericthys, but the color pattern is not correct. I believe it is a red texas.

It is 100% a red texas, i got a nice little one from petsmart a couple months ago that caught my eye while in the clearance bin. I just separated it with everything I'm selling tomorrow in the aquamania marketplace. He's nice though, you keep Em long enough he'll fade to a light orange. Mine is fading now but he'll be gone tomorrow.

Yeah it didn't add up. I've heard jds are aggressive. He doesn't bother other fish in the tank
