I can't identify your fish but my rule of thumb is that if a fish has teeth, it's guaranteed to be a predator :cool:
 
could be a Parachromis dovii which is a predator!
 
Not an expert but isn't this a C.salvini ?

This is for sure Trichromis salvini. Those are beautiful but pretty mean fish. Not 100% sure but looks very much like a male.
