because you are in the central american/south american forum, those are african cichlids and there is an african cichlid forum HERE. <---Click the word HERE to go to the african cichlid forum.

Or better yet, PM a Moderator and ask them to move this thread to the African Section.

The first one is a yellow lab (Labidochromis Caeruleus), the second is a red zebra (Metriaclima estherae), The next one looks like hybrid, not sure, the dark one with the orange fins is a Copadichromis borleyi, female. I'm not sure about the brown one. The next picture is a red zebra with a convict behind it.

The one that nobody can id is a malawi eye biter. Latin name D. Compressiceps.
