Yep Geo- not sure which one though

+1 looks like the type thats making its rounds through the petco and petsmart around here lately but im horrible at Id-ing these guys
 
With a lack of lateral spot I'd say G. altifrons BUT they are young so my ID could be off. If they start looking very different (ie bars on face, larger lateral spot, etc.) in a couple months time then post new pics and we can try again.

i thought altifrons still had a lateral spot it was just small?

G. altifrons can have a small to missing (or just not very visible) midlateral spot. The size of the OP's and the fact they are new makes that a little harder. New goes of any species IMO can be washed out for the first few days or until they adjust to their new settings.
