Help in ID

[wgarry]

I have two fish from my pond that I caught in a minnow trap that I am unsure of the identification. I know the orange one is a common cichild but I cannot find the name at this color stage. I apologize for the blurry photo on the other marbled one but I was trying to get them out of the trap and back into the water ASAP.

As always thanks in advance.

Not sure on that OB zebra. Can we get a better shot showing the face?

must be nice to be able to catch african cichlids in your local pond. They do look like zebras as stated by mike.

That would be me.

Thanks for all the help, rather than add to this thread, I made a separate thread that shows some of the cichlids I got in one try with this minnow trap. I was actually trying to get minnows, but these guys are so curious they come right to it.

So that is a no go on another shot of the OB.

the first one doesnt look like a red zebra OB-i have a few myself and they dont resemble that one at all.

It's an OB zebra, look at the 4th pic down on the right side of this poster

this is an OB zebra... As mike said you really need another shot of the face.. the pic is not clear enough for true ID.. i wonder how they got in your pond... thats a great find
