What did it swallow (an angel fish?) and what are the sizes of the chaca and the prey?

It caught an adult Ramirezi and is about 8 cm long.

Interesting. It looks like it swallowed something "triangular". I guess the cichlid could only fit in the stomach half-folded.
Which fish is 8 cm, the cichlid? What is the size of chaca?

The Chaca chaca is 8 cm and the Mikrogeophagus ramirezi is (was) an adult, lets say about 3-4 cm.
