I got them from a online seller a month ago. Not very good quality . Here are some pics

It does look like the typical chain store sunshine peacock to me.... pics are a little small for me...but if it were to be a female it won't get color to it. It will stay like that. As for the other 2 the photos are small so its hard for me to see (I am already bad with colors) but that last one looks intresting.
 
You ordered them online, but you don't know what they are? Why?

They are an Aulonocara, but at this point, it is nearly impossible to tell what you have.

That is the problem i have . They don't look like what i had ordered from their web pics. They may be still young not showing much color yet??

How big are they? Were you told that you would have males or could these be females?
 
They are 2.5" I had asked the retailer (owner of the online seller) make sure all males peacocks. And he confirmed he can sexed them . I guess i got screwed :(
 
At 2.5" thats about what Id expect normal healthy male peacocks like.Not going to look like adults at that size unless they are juiced.Got some waiting to do.
