I picked up a "new" used tank yesterday and it included 3 cichlids & a pleco. I have ZERO knowledge of cichlids... can someone help me id these fish so I can properly fine new homes for them. I do not intend to keep them, but I need to know what fish they are so I can find them proper new homes.

The 1st one is huge... he's about 6". The black & white one is about 4"-5". The blue one is about 3"++. Any help would be most appreciated!

No clue what the first fish is, looks like a Kenyi hybrid to me (though not a 100% sure).

The black and white is an m. parallelus (female) and the striped blue is a kenyi (probably a female if it hasn't turned or got any yellow already).
