Can Anybody identify these?

Hey guys, so, I got some more african cichlids, and wanted to see if you guys knew exactly which ones they were, and how I can tell? Thanks, Tom

The one was really fast and hard to get a picture of, but he is a peach color, with really light vertical stripes, and solid red eyes. And the only one I know of for sure is the parrot cichlid.

1st pic, is the nose under turned? It is an odd angle and it looks like it hangs over. otherwise spot on guys.

 

[norcal_tomtom707]

No, the nose is not underturned, just looks that way cause he has a black stripe right above his nose, lol, looks almost like tiger stripes

Then they have been IDed!

The last one does not look to be an african, sorry

Actually, I knew that the last one is a blood parrot cichlid, I knew it wasnt an afican cichlid, was just hoping he would be ok with them, I see the parriots with cichlids all the time.

he will be ok for right now, your africans all look like juveniles. Could be another story once everyone start to mature into adults.
