Here are some

pictures of fish that were sold to me as Gymnogeophagus Rhabdotus. While showing pictures on

forums I was told that they are NOT Rhabdotus but Geophagus Brasilienses. By researching these

fish in books and on the web, I too came to the conclusion that they are not Rhabdotus but I also

don't believe that they are Brasilienses. Can anybody help me with the identification of this

cichlid please?

Look like 'Geophagus'

Brasilliensis to me but maybe Geo Ictalpurensis. definately from the Brasilliensis family which

contains at least 5 undescribed species. They are not Rhabdotus though.
