Cichlid ID?

[mstrpln03]

Can someone ID these? I'm interested in getting a pair but haven't seen any in the LFS.

wow nice colors... never seen anything like them before but they look kinda african...

how big are they?

 

[mstrpln03]

Don't know. I found them on a cichlid website but haven't seen them in person. If I can get an ID, the local LFS is pretty good about getting what I want.

They either look like Ruti Island or Flameback Victorian cichlids.

The one def. looks like a rusty (Iodotropheus Sprengerae) but i'm not sure about the purple and red one....Mabey a christmas fulu (Hap. Xysticromis phytophagus)

 

[iamzrad]

Those are Victorian cichlids for sure.
Looks like my flameback,

They kinda look like borelyi's to me.

 

[eddiezaw]

the one in the background definitely looks like a borelyi but the one in the foreground looks like a fulu or a flameback or maybe a dayglow. don't quote me on those species but thats what it reminds me of.

The one in the back is a C. borleyi.
