Ok I need help identifying these two fish. I have a bad memory and didn't remember what the label called them, and possibly the label could have been wrong. The first two pics are of the same fish, and the last one is behind the yellow lab. Any help?

Any chance of some better pics? close-ups? :D

Based on those pics, best guess would be:

1. One of the P.Elongatus species
2. One of the C.Afra species
 
yellow labidochromis caeruleus

melanochromis labeotropheus


at a guess :crazy:


good luck biff
 
Actually I got some help from some other people and the dark blue one is a copadichromis azureus, and the lighter blue one is a greshakei.
I know what the yellow ones are, just needed help with the other two.
Thanks

Just in case anyone has another opinion here's another pic with them in it along with the yellow labs again. These little snots are just too fast to get in a real good pic.

Much better :nod:

I'd probably agree with Copadichromis Azureus and Metriaclima Greshakei but i'm guessing they are both very young juvies as they are not showing anything like their true colours.
 
Thanks! I agree too early to tell, and they all look so much alike to me. And there is so much crossbreeding ya never really know. Thanks for the help!
