Does Anyone Know What Kind Of Fish This Is?

Hi guys

I "think" this is an African Cichlid but I'm not to sure.

This isn't my fish, it's a friend of mine's. He use to work at a petstore and his boss was going to throw it in the garbage just because it was ill so my friend took him home. And no one seems to know what kind of fish it is so I was hoping one of you could help.

Here are a couple pics of it...

Thanks.

Looks like a Hap to me, not sure on the species though as there are no distinctive markings i can see.

(looks @ ferris) it's a hap for sure,.. maybe some sort of OB hap? noticing the black blotch on fin...

my guess young male too.

tell your friend to keep it and give it LOTS of tank space and they will be rewarded with beauty!!!!

Thanks guys!

Right now the fish is in a 65 gallon tank, but he has a 200 gallon that he is going to be setting up very soon.

Thanks again.
