The attachments didn't work in the second post.

I'm not sure what they are, but the one in your first post has a deformity. It looks like its back didn't properly develop which resulted in an incomplete dorsal fin. If you bought it from someone I'd ask for a refund or get it swapped out.
 
Weird about the pics... But good eye with the deformity, I do believe you are correct. I sadly noticed this also, the other one has a normal dorsal fin.

I do believe they are A. cacatuoides "white gold".

Good eye with the deformity pick up. If it was my fish I would keep it. It might will good when it gets bigger. If not it will be a unique looking fish. I have a peacock bass with no lower jaw and it's one of my favorites. I once saw a koi at petsmart with a tail that bent into a right angle, I went back a few days to get it and it was not there.
 
Well I got apisto fever, picked up an agassizii double red and I believe a small male cacatuoides. 4 may be too many for a 25g, but I mainly want a pair so I figure I'll grow out some of the different species, see if I get a pair, or at least pick a favorite species based on adult coloration.
