Can someone identify this cichlid?

New to this site... Love African cichlids and have been keeping them for over a year now. Could someone tell me what this cichlid is called? The lady at the LFS told me it was a blue peacock she got from a breeder...even though it's clearly red. I think it's a red peacock, but it's a dark red ALL over except his face, and doesn't have patterns on his fins like typical red peacocks do and isn't a dark orange. What do you guys think?He's really small, not even two inches and has amazing color already which is why I got him.

Looks something like a ruby red, but the red color behind the eye look odd. Wait until it grows larger and fully develops the colors, but I'd say it's likely a hybrid of some sort.
