I think it is a Paralabidochromis sp. "Rock Kribensis"
Thanks for your input. :fish:

I think you're 99.9% right. It looks like one to me. Do you have females you can show a picture of?

 

[mrcichlid1968]

is there a list somewhere on this forum to tell what the diff abbreviations mean?
BTW I'll get a pic of the females when the op arrives...they're camera shy.

is there a list somewhere on this forum to tell what the diff abbreviations mean?

sp. is an abbreviation for "species"

It is simply a temporary way to identify a fish until it is officially assigned a species name. It is usually a color or a location or a description of some unique physical feature of the fish.

Thanks, :thumb: thats been bugging me to find out ...ok...is there other abbrev. or a list on this sight somewhere I haven't found yet?

Nope, at least I haven't found one. Just something you learn as you look at names.
