It is Cyp. micro. Killia

Compare these pics.

Cyprichromis sp. "Leptosoma Jumbo" (Kigoma)

They do look similar.
Think it is as noddy says though.

Cyprichromis microlepidotus Killia
Think its the scale size thats the give away difference between the two species.
microlepidotus having very small scales. (as well as a longer "snout" thing :wink: )
The colours may be very missleading.

All the best James

Agreed.
