The first guy is very young, it dose have the hap stripe across his eye. I found him in the assorted cichlids tank, with other young fish. I payed 2.50 for him, he has a very intresting shape and color. Very outgoing and isn't scared of the other fish.
The second fish is another unknown cichlid that I picked up as an experiment, the shop owner told me he was probably an electric blue.
I definitly don't think the third one is a red-empress ive kept and bred the fish so many times I know that much lol. I think he is most likely a red shoulder peacock.
The last one is a big 10 inch sand shifter of some kind, payed a good 49$ for it from the large cichlid tank (not sure which), my lfs's are terrible really the best I can do is generalize, hap, peacock, tang, and so forth
The thrid is Protomelas taeniolatus so many color morphs that it could be though.
The 2nd I have seen sold under the same story. I have two females with out the blue in the face. No males though... also sold as a copadichromis in some stories... not sure what they are...
The last one being 10 inches is throwing a wrench in it. Is it really that big or close. Like a big 8 or 9... That will widen the field a lot more then.

He's about 9.75 inches, he is a "big guy". Well I just don;t think the shape of the fins are right for it to be a Protomelas taeniolatus, but hey you're right they're are so many verities out there.
He's somekind of big schooling sand spitter
