Cichlid Id

[Soaup]

I used to have a Solid Black african cichlids who passed away a few years ago.. Well he was the only one i have ever seen and i have never found out what kind of fish i had.. He was completely black no spots or none black colors anywhere. He was shaped like a Mbuna.. About the same body shape as a zebra or auratus

Difficult to say as Zebra and Auratus don't have the same body shape.
