They look cool. The big one looks like a red devil, or maybe a flowerhorn (not sure) also looks like you have a yellow lab in there.

The first one look like a zebra obliquiden to me. I'm not 100% sure since I don't know a lot about Victorian cichlids. The second one is an OB peacock :)
Nice fish!

I think that first one might be a Salvini Cichlid. They usually have horizontal stripes so maybe its a cross with a convict. Pink/orange stomach if con would mean female. Maybe Pseudotropheus lombardoi?

I'm not good with African Cichilds which they all are except for the Red/Midas. I know the one African is a Yellow Lab. That African Cichild in the first two pics is very cool looking!

:iagree: the first one is a Astatotilapia latifasciata(Zebra Obliquidens) (http://cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=1556)
