Nope... the LIberia Red form has not been collected for several years. Sellers are currently using that name for no other reason (that I can think of) that to attract attention to the fish they have because of the picture of 'Liberia red' in the books.

Your fish are from Guinae, and are probably a 'dinkaya' type. There are several 'dinkaya' types that are sold under various names.. the most recent has been 'fria' or 'friya'. Here is a link to a log about the 'fria':

Pelvicachromis humilis

Hell J.T.,

Looking at your photo, I'd say you have what Anton Lamboj prefers to call Pelvicachromis humilis "Guinea Red," from the Kolente system in Guinea. P. humilis "Fria" is a bit more intensely colored and is from the Konkoure system, north of Conakry.

Good luck!

All the best,
