thanks Nikki,
I bought my li'l guy, after contacting the breeder and checking the species [rather than the LFS I got him from] I found out they were selling them as red devils, but it is really a midas cichlid, from what I have found out they are essentially the same fish and are very close relatives, close enough that some people still call them devils today, and it is apparently almost impossible to buy a red devil that is completely pure, and free of any midas at all.
Anyway, midas or devil, hes going to be a real nice looking fish, yellow at the moment, but turning redder.
thanks again.
