welcome!
i think the gray one will be compatible with the yellow one, since they both look like small lake chiclids? (edit mbuna chiclids)
 
You should try more photos and in wich the fish could be seen, entirely and from one side, try further, we can wait no problem. For me it could be some Tilapia species or an Central American cichlid but no idea, I must first see the fish, sorry.

Very beautiful fish, I'm not expert for cichlids (nor anything else) but I'm sure he's not african but from The Americas, whether Central or South America I can't really say, perhaps Vieja, earlier this would have been a Cichlasoma, but it is something like that. In South America they would mostly have soft-acid water while in Central America they would have hard-alcaline. I hope some versed people here can tell you which species but surely he will get quite big!
 
Thanks Colin :)

I agree looks like a female convict cichlid. I cant tell what the yellow one is though?
