Synspilum (i Think)

[toy_soldier]

Hi everyone

I recently brought a 10 inch cichild for my 100 gallon tank....
He's been sat in the shop for months and i finally caved in as his priced has dropped so much, i felt sorry for him...

I had a pleco in the tank which he has shredded (and now has been placed into another tank)

it said on his tank synspilum, and the shop man told me he was about 2/4 years old, but he is white, with a slight under belly red, he has little red/brown teeth and occasionally has the odd blue and gold tones in him..... now obviousley its weird as the synspilum's i have seen in the past have been vibrant in colour, he's extremley aggressive, and shows no interest in pellets or larger flakes, just eats live foods and cucumber (weird i know)

Please any advice or guidence would be excellent!

Is there anyway you can get a picture? With so many species it's hard to id without one.

I did find this profile [URL="http/www.fishprofiles.com/files/profiles/450.htm"]http/www.fishprofiles.com/files/profiles/450.htm[/URL], looks like its a Central/South American cichlid, so you might post in the New World section with a pic for help.
