Maybe a pleco? Not much.

I won't keep him. I'll see if I can donate him and all the cichlids at work to the LFS. Then we can start fresh with some less aggressive fish.

He's doing well, fins almost completely regrown including his badly damaged pectoral fin. Still timid and not too fond of me although he does recognise feeding time. I will post a photo tomorrow.

Here he is. Tail and fins almost completely regrown. He's still shy, in a small tank with no other fish, but he's more confident than he was and comes up to the top when it's time to feed. Not sure about those dots on his dorsal and tail, must be some kind of patterning. Anyway he is off to the LFS soon hopefully to find a good home.

Just normal patterning, He looks healthy.

Here he is in his temporary new home. Hides behind his fake rock now instead of the filter which is good, but when I'm not around happily swims laps and swims back and forth looking for imaginary prey. Ventures out if I stay close to the tank to say hello, just doesn't like sudden approaches.
