It looks like a blurry bump.It could be a part of the fishes body or a growth of some kind. Can you get a clearer picture and describe it to us?

It appears to be his anus. But it wasn't always like that

When my female Africans are about to lay eggs, their vent area looks like that because the part were the eggs come out (don't remember what it's called) is expanding/getting ready to pass the eggs

Well it's pointy. Is this possibly the male vent or pens lol

When it comes to American cichlid their breeding tubes look pointed, so yeah that's what it could be (probably is). I don't know how old you fish is or at what age that species is mature enough to spawn. You might want to look that up.

That is a pretty young fish but it is most likely a penis or ovipositor (egg laying thingie in females) I always described the male apparatus as looking like a finger and a female unit as a fist. Look at it like that and it becomes clear enough. The baby green terror looks healthy enough otherwise. Nice fish.
