Hello folks! I am new to fish keeping ( three months under my belt ) I am having a very hard time trying to identify two of my Cichlids. The girl at Big Al's was just a kid and did not know what species they were, the tank they were in were only labeled as " assorted Cichlids " I am hoping they are both either peacocks or mbuna's as the rest of my tank has both of these species in it. Here is a picture of them both, any help identifying them ( species ) would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I forgot to upload the pictures in my post, I did so in the comment below.

Oops! Here is a picture of each Cichlid;

I'm no expert, but, the top one looks like an ob peacock/mbuna hybrid. The bottom one looks like a mbuna hybrid, too.
Sorry, I'm not much help!

Good, that was what I was hoping they were. I appreciate the opinion.
