- (x1) 2" Firemouth

- (x1) 6" ?
- (x1) 2" Red Zebra
- (x2) 3" ?
- (x1) 4" Albino ?

1. What kind of cichlids do I have? Pictures attached:

2. How do you sex a Jack Demp.?

I'd say the blue cichlid is a male Maylandia estherae http://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/m_estherae.php

the striped cichlid is a female Maylandia lombardoi http://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/m_lombardoi.php

The redbellied cichlid is a firemouth. I'm not sure if firemouths can be easily sexed or not.
