Hybrid Or Just A Dominant Coloration? (w/ Pic)

[KhaosInc]

One of the 4 fish I was given that was identified (on this forum) auratus (Melanochromis auratus) has turned much darker with a faint streak of blue. He (or she) is very active, and has a nice cave picked out that he's quite fond of. A few days ago his coloration was much more similar to the other 3, but a hair darker. Now the difference is quite dramatic.

Is this just a dominate coloring, or a different fish?

I have got to get a better camera for taking fish pics... this thing is just to old and slow.
