Your "false" zebra still looks like a true one to me (M.estherae). At first I thought it was a female, but it from todays pics it looks like it might be a sub-dominate male, they tend to be less colorful and more yellowy.

The "no clue on this guy" pics look like a stressed out Labidochromis sp. Hongi to me, but I'm not sure.

I'm not sure if it's even possible, but your greeny colored one looks like a L.caeruleus P.socolofi cross, it has the socolofi mouth and kind of a mix of the coloration. That one really stumps me.

Been away for 4 days and one of my Zebras is holding yellow eggs, one of my Aurautus is dead/munched and my Large 'was green' Hybrid is defending the Cobalt Zebra with his life....

Hes changed colour to a stunning yellow body and blue face.

I'm thinking he is one of these 3 combinations...just from behavior..

Yellow Lab x Cobalt Blue Zebra
Socolfi x Cobalt Blue Zebra
Auratus x Socolofi

Its deffo a hybrid between a yellow and Blue fish and the fish has black markings with no 'bars' ...since it was the most likley candidate to killing my Auratus....could possibley the normal interspecies agression there....So could have some Auratus in it...that would explain the yellow and black.

It deffo reminds me more of a Zebra than any of the other fish mentioned tho.

I'm not a fan of Hybrids but he is a absolutely stunning fish (cant say the same for the stripey one tho...)
