Here is a young dovii to compare, doesn't look much like dovii to me

It looks more like multifasciatus or one of the other Parachromis (possibly female, and many of the females are hard to tell apart), or ........of course these days its always possiblity, as a hybrid.
Here is a young motaguense to compare

I'll leave it to others to post other Parachromis shots to compare

Looks like a hybrid Jagovi. I have two and they look similar.
