I dont know what you have other then they are indeed cichlids, they are very nice looking. I will keep tabs on this to see what they are, I wish you the best of luck with them

They look like some kind of peacock cichlids from lake malawi. What size tank, water perameters, and other tank mates?

 

[liv2padl]

they are all members of the Aulonocara family, and are endemic to lake Malawi in east Africa.
