Yes, definitely an oddball looking fish compared to the rest of the haps found in that area.
11" Wild Caught C. moorii

I currently have one pushing 8 inch. It’s hard to believe Moori could reach 11”. Is it just an estimate without scale verification. Was it wild caught in Lake Malawi or in someone’s fish pond. The classic book “The cichlid fishes of the Great Lakes of African” reported that wild caught fish grow slower and reach smaller size than comparable species in fish ponds and aquarium.
