some kind of Labeotropheus, perhaps either a Fuelleborni or Trewavasae
Coulkd also be a kind of Pseudotropheus.
Does look like a Mbuna Malawi though.
If you gonna google the above, there are MANY different colour variations, might take you a while to ID it |

im 99% certain its a half coloured up male auratus or possible a dominant female auratus |

hi bethan
i'm pretty sure it's one of these three melanochromis vermivorus or melanochromis auratus or melanochromis cyaneorhabdos
either way from that picture we'd all just be guessing as it does look very faded if i were you i'd give it a couple of days and take a picture of it swimming around in its tank and re-post the picture as it will give us all a better idea of what it could be if we saw its true colour |

Hi,
It looks just like my female melanchromis auratus (dominant). Every now and again she reverts back to usual yellowy colour. |
