id like to know what kinda fish these two are.

im pretty sure the stripped one is a convict but i dun wanna be wrong on that. it follows the pink/purple one around. he looks pink now but when i caught him he was dark blue and turned this color out of the bag when he was all stressed, though he hasent ever changed back to blue!! (the reason i caught him >.>...)

they are with my baby tiger oscar, O'opu nakea, and 4 plecos. all wild caught. heres a few pics of them.

Btw there is no substrate since i was replacing the white gravel. will add sand tonight.

just generally "african"?

 

[andy1985]

the first one looks like type of Aulonocara and second type of Mabuna could be a hybrid of couple.

The light one looks to be a Ice blue Zebra (Pseudotropheus greshakei) definitely.
I have an albino one.

The darker one looks like a Common Oscar to me.

Cobalt blue maybe? (Metraclima calinos or something like that.)

Top pics resembles Aulonocara Hansbaenschi - Red shoulder Peacock

Next 2 pics Labidochromis Perlmutt

The Oscars are Tiger Oscars.................common oscars have no orange coloring at all
