My Convict Looks Weird... Take A Look..

[Sik-lid_dude]

Just had a look at the video, there is going to be deaths in that tank soon, also some will possibally get eaten, if you have a flowerhorn in there, that will probally end up killing all other cichlids,

I am trying my best to get rid of my non-cichlids, the convicts are acting like pussies, they even get pushed around by the mollies.

AND IF ANYONE HAD OR LNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM--PLEASE REPLY

It looks like a cross bred fish, meaning one being convict and the other being a different cichlid, meaning its a cross breed

I agree with Nelly. I have convicts and yours don't look like convicts, the body shape is all wrong. Head is too pointed, reminds me of a geo, they seem to have hoizontal spots and stripes aren't right either. Mum, if that is really their mother, is a typical convict (her head is different to your fish)so yours could well be hybrids.
My advice is to
1.add coconot caves, fake plants, wood or even dark glass jars for shelter
2. immediately remove the mollies and any other non cichlids that will be killed and eaten. If you don't have a spare tank for mollies use a cheap plastic storage crate, they will be OK as long as they have a heater and filter if possible. If you don't have a spare filter you need to do frequent big water changes but they will be safer there till you rehome them. Why not advertise your non cichlids in the Clssified section here?

Looks like a Juvi Amphilophus Labiatus (Red Devil), or even a juvi Blood Parrot, thats what mine looked like before they peeled and grew.
