          Not a frontosa. Some fish have nachal humps because of being cross bred with fish who carry this trait. Some are just like that

                    Fish in that new pic are convicts. The one in the second pic is a jack Dempsey

                      Well, I guess Id rather have a mated pair of convicts than a convict and a frontosa mating! Lol. Thanks for the help guys!

                        Highly unlikely that a frontosa would breed with anything else other than a frontosa. Only certain fish will do that and those are generally the hybrids. Just a warning, convicts breed like crazy!
