So I got 2 cichlids from my LFS, they where just labled as assorted African Cichlids, one i think ive ID'd as Neolamprologus Brevis, but I'm not really sure, here is the best i can do picture wise, this is the first-

Sorry for the poor picture quality. The one I belive to be Neolamprologus Brevis is currently about an inch and a half long, his coloration is slate blue, with black spots. The tips of his dorsal fin are a yellowish color.
The other fish is about an inch long, the same slate color but a bit brighter, with no spots or stripes. His dorsal and caudal fins have a horizontal black stripes. He also wouldn't hold still for cellphone shots.. :p

Anyway, thanks for the help. as soon as its stocked, i'll post a picture of my cichlid tank. :)
 
1st one looks like N.Venustus or N.Livingstonii

2nd one looks like a Hap or Aulonocara from the body shape but can't be more specific from that pic - sorry
