my fish supplier ran out of feeders and gave me these instead, my American's aren't too interested in eating them though. they are juvies about 1 1/2 inches long and im wondering what are they and are they worth keeping? I think I remember him saying they are Africans and maybe crimson? not too sure though so any help would be great!P7011058.JPGP7011065.JPG

I have seen the parents and they are 10 - 15cm and have a little bit of orange to them but still solid stripes, would just love to know what they are as I have about 50 of them and unsure what to do with them now.

They look like they could be some kind of Lake Victorian Haps or possibly some fancy strain of convict.
