big hint:
armatus - vibrant orange adipose fin
tatauaia - same color adipose fin as the caudal
 
1. cynodon gibbus
2. h. scomberoides
3. h. scomberoides
4. might be armatus, pic isn't clear
5. h. scomberoides

i saw your other thread, if your supplier is using these images, they're not of actual stock.. they're all over the web. if you get a picture of the actual fish they sell we can ID them for you. a lot of suppliers mislabel these fish

Number four is a Rhaphiodon. In the first pic, only one looks like a Cynodon, the rest are scombs.
