new lil' uro...i think

[jennigypsy]

I think this is a uro/mayan/false red terror....found it in the "sa/ca cichlids" tank for $3.99....I wasn't sure what it was...(and so of course I HAD to buy it...)
It's only about 2 inches long...is kind of a yellow/olive color...has the eye spot at the base of the tail..in the middle...and pinkish fins...

one of the ways to tell btwn Uro and Festae at that size is to look at the spot in front of their tail fin. oval = uro, circle towards the top = festae

and another indicator is the stripes behind the eyes..they form a y in festaes and a straight line or angled line in urops.
