First two look like Vieja synspilum, second two look like Protomelas similis. These fish all appear to be juveniles. Identification is more certain with adults.

SubRosa, thank you for your knowledgeable input.
They seem to be both female due to their body shape and color, don't you think?
I bought a used tank and they came with it.

They look like females, but most FW fish tend to look like females regardless of sex until they hit sexual maturity. How big are they?

[steakman]

The one on the first 2 pics is about 3in, and the other is about 3 and 1/2in.
Males tend to show some kind of color already at this size, don't they?
But both of them are just plain silver and streak line of black.

A 3.5" Proto that looks like that is almost certainly female. The other is most likely female as well, but there's a bit more room for error.
