Doe not look like severum, ram, or oscar. Of the common fish (and therefore more likely), I would say pink convict.

It looks to me like some sort of cichlid but the pic is too fuzzy so I'm not sure.

It's definitely a cichlid, and definitely looks like a pink convict.

I agree with fishguy it looks like a pink/white convict. There is a video of ours at the following link if you would like to have a look.

A young red devil may be another possibility.

I think the eyes are set a little farther back on red devils, even when small.

It looks like a gourami to me, but I'm not as familiar with cichlids. Need a better picture I think. it's definitely not a molly, lol

You are correct, I just had a look at some pics from when our red devil shared a tank with our convict, at the same size, the devils eyes are a little bigger and the nose is a little pointier also.

Oh how they grow so fast (he was the same size as the convict only a few months ago, he is now about 8 inches, LOL)
