Hey guys, here's a video of my australoheros. The fish store told me it was a red ceibal but everyday that passes makes me doubt that.
I have a hard time believing that my little guy (girl?) will get so colourful. He's not much smaller that the guy in the picture below but he still has a long way to go before he get there.
It seems to look more and more like a chameleon cichlid. Australoheros Facetus? He changes color really fast, you can see that he is almost white at the end of the video.
I'm a bit confused with the species, can anyone shed some light on the matter? Cichlosoma facetus, chromis facetum? Centurion? Are they all chanchito? Are they all from the facetus group?
I just want to know how big it'll get and what to expect. Any help is appreciated!
Here is my fish:

Why is this also called a red ceibal, it really seems so different:

Thanks in advance!

I didn't tought that was the difference since I had seen pictures where the couples were really similar. From your experience, can you tell if mine is a red ceibal? Have you seen some young specimen?
