These are my 10 new mbuna cichlids that i just got, they are in an established 55g tank with 2 penguin 350's and a Maryland C-220 i believe (it was the up to 55g model)

I was wondering if i could possibly get a positive I.D. on the fish from ya'll, that would be great if possible!

thanks in advance and i hope you injoy the pics.

Not sure on the striped one, but the one in the back is a red zebra

The one with the reddish fins and horizontal stripes is probably a female melanochromis joanjohnsonae

thank you for your help!

I bought #2 as a "perlmutt", i had read about it before and that it was a Lab. could this be a possibility?

Fuelleborni OB, I've got one with similar coloring, trewavasaes are more slender.
