Help what type of cichlid is this?

We may need more pictures. Pretty sure it is an Aequidens species. There is at least 3 that could have that orange color on the flank and gill plate : Aequidens diadema,A. metae and A. pallidus.

Looks to me like Krobia xinguensis, aka Orange Spot Acara. Not as elongate as others in the genus, and the placement of the orange color is fairly distinct. Doesn't get too big either, similar size to Blue Acaras. This species has gotten to be somewhat available due to the ease with which they can be bred, and the fact that it's got some color.

C-F lacks a profile on this species. I would be happy to provide some photos if the moderator or admin wants to make one.
