    A couple of months ago I got what was labeled as a Pseudotropheus sp. "(Msuli) "Acei" (Picture 1,2). But I have never seen another one like it.The Acei's I have seen have a lot of blue to them with green fins.

    Well yesterday I went to go get some more fish and found a good deal on this guy. He was listed as a (Copadichromis) "red fin borleyi"(picture 3,4,5,6). I cant not notice that these guys look almost exactly alike. The only difference is that one has green fins and the other one has orange. The red fin looks a little beat up from when I got him but Im sure he will heal nicely with in a week. I added some salt and slime coat plus for him.


    So can yall help me out to make sure that the fish in the 1st and 2nd picture are really a acei?
