It is a firemouth (meeki)....Thorichthys Pasionis (yellow meeki) is the only other species in the genus commonly encountered that looks like a firemouth. Ellioti/Maculipinnis, Aureum, "mixteco", and several others are in the genus but the nose is more curved than the straight snout of the firemouth and pasionis. If you can find ellioti they are incredibly beautiful fish BTW.

Gave the firemouth to a coworker and while it withstood an epic battle with a male venustus, shown here -
...it succumbed to my coworker's touch, sadly. It was really a nice specimen. I found that venustus for free for my buddy as well and he told me the very next day to come get him. "Too mean".
