Another name that cichlid!!!

I puchased 2 of these africans at my lfs. They look like johanni with the same markings and body shape but they are an orange/yellow color. I know what you are thinking, they are just females. These little guys are only 1 inch long!!! There is no way these fish are would be showing adult colors, or would they? Or are they some sort of crossbreed?

 

[xhibition]

I'm going to asume that the color is a little off. You said orange/yellow so im thinking either juvi. Pseudotropheus saulosi or female Pseudotropheus saulosi.

agree whith xhibition...probleby young Ps saulosi....I wonder:here in sweden the lfs "must" ID fish before selling....how can folks take care of the fish otherwise?If they dont now what it is?

The blue one is a socolofi. Both sexes are blue. the orange one could be female or juvenile of a multiple of different fishes, saulosi, or Johanni or faux-Johhani. The stress marks suggest the latter.
