O.k guys I got these two at the lfs. they had 30 or so med to adult cichlids in a 30! some guy tried to sell them and when they refused them he threatened to flush them all so they worked out a deal long story shor. When i came the tank was spiking in front of my eyes. floaters droppers and surface gaspers! the tank was a lil on the cool side 76 degrees or so the air was also broken in the tank. I recomended a change a lil salt and bump the temp up to 84-85 till they start acting right i grabbed a couple. at first i thought one was con but he is really blue and faint yellow stripes the other i would take a stab at but i don't want to get laughed out of town if i'm wrong! they have alot more but i dont have the room. I was going to get a red devil, but they dont have any till next week. They will let me bring them back. So should i keep these guys or take back and still get my devil? If i should keep them any sugg's please help! Thx in advance!!

Tanks a lil dirty cause it was a bi@#h getting by balas out! splashes every where. the con or whatever it is is a lil hurt cause he was o.g about getting netted!
 
the one is definetly a con.....hard to tell on the other one.....maybe snap some other pics when they settle down and are a little less stressed.......
 
In the third pic that is what he looked like at the shop and for an hour or so did a change got them real happy!
