It is a zebra obliquedens, well it was sold to me as one. I think there are two different fish called this.

I thought it looked alot like my new one too..they sold him to me with that name also.. yours is gorgeous.. Ikevi really mixed me up now.. yet another name for these.???. at least when i looked it up looked the same to me.. ???Don't you love this fish..so awesome changing colors all the time ..heres mine ..still baby.

Yah yah I was off, but I saw the dark underbody and thought Pundamilia nyererei...

Astatotilapia latifasciata, aka Zebra Obliquidens in my mind have purple underbodies.

you were very close Ikevi and neat thing for me is i did not know about this one you mentioned.. the pundamilia nyererei..the only difference i could see is that they don't get as large..so it was interesting to read up on them..

Here are some of mine. They are in a regular 55 gallon tank, with lots of rockwork. These pics are around 2 months old, but not too much has changed. They are all malawis. Enjoy

(Full Tank Shot)

(8" Female Bumblebee)

(5" Male Orange Zebra which was recently exchanged for some other fish for my other tanks - don't worry though - i kept their 25+ offspring )

(Various babies - Orange Zebras and Yellow Labs ~1")

(Right Half of tank)

(left Half)

(7" Male Auratus - The tank monster)

That is not all of them, but i only have 4 species in the tank - Auratus, Orange Zebras, Bumblebees, and Yellow Labs. All species are breeding, 'cept the bumblebee, because their is only one .

Well just a quick shot of the lwandas growing... They are in there own tank now, I hope to soon get them into a 30. Anyways they are likely ~3/4 inch maybe up to 1. That white sticker is over 2 inches. (I think it is 2.5.)

It seems like yesterday they were just fry rolling in there egg sacks. I think I still have 11, but well I can't tell for sure.
