I have sevearla fish like this and I would bet it is a Sciaenochromis fryeri. I just posted a pic of a 4-5" adult male..

i hop so its a nice looking fish

I am about 99% positive on the Id of it.. the face structure tells a lot for the fryeri... keep me updated on his color changing process.. he should get a white stripe on the top fin and eventually on the forehead if it is a Iceburg Fryeri...

actually hes forehead is kind a peachy color

that is because he is still juvenile, his colors will intensify and increase as he ages.

Carlos it is a fryeri, their is no doubt in my mind or anyone elses that has looked at this photo.. I wouldn't say this if I wasn't sure..

This one may be the subdominant one and will not show the same coloration..

He's the most territorial of the bunch, but he's not a bully per say. He's
