to be totally honest, I forget, but as far as I can remember they are rusty cichlids. I'm going to try to mate them until they get big and then I plan to give them to a local fish keeper.

I know very little about African Cichlids, but I believe that is too small for any Mbuna. They would also probably benefit from rockwork in the tank.

rustys grow to about 4" and I dont plan to let them get that big. Also... Rocks will definately be in there before long. =)

They are mbuna, nonetheless... mild-mannered in comparison to other mbuna, perhaps, but still a 20 long really doesn't afford them much space. ;)
