The second one kind of looks like a l.perlmutt http/www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=741, not sure though

The first one looks like a hap of some kind, I'm not good w/haps at all, hopefully someone else can help.

Any other ideas what the first fish could be. I have been searching for a few months for the correct id to this fish and i have had zero luck with it.

Depending on its size it could still get its color back. It is an Electric Blue Hap and was most likely hormoned to the max to make it as colorful as possible.

The Mbuna is almost certainly a Socolofi hybrid - it has the distinctive markings of the species on the dorsal fin. If that's the case, i'm not sure exactly what it has been x-bred with - Hongi possibly???

As for the Hap - it could be a female of any number of species. Probably is an Ahli though.

Thats a female electric blue........100% sure, I've got the in male colours befor and they lost then 2-3 later and afer 12 months they was carrying eggs...

So have fun and breed them.

I find the fry are a little dopy and get eaten to easily!!!
