Sorry in advance for the crappy pics (still shots from a vid cam), but I'd appreciate any input/confirmation on ID'ing the following fish:

From left to right then top to bottom (like how you'd read a book in English):

1 and 2 are pics of the same fish - she just spat fry about 48 hours ago.
3 and 4 are pics of the same fish - i'm almost positive it's NOT a Malawi Eye Biter. I'm guessing it's another kind of Dimidiochromis though.
5 - no clue. some kind of hap?
6 - both peacocks, right is an OB, i think. no clue what the one on the left is. can anybody guess the specifics?
7 - also a peacock - perhaps what's commonly known as a "strawberry"? For what it's worth, this one has lost a lot of color (both deepness of the red and coverage)
8 - bumblebee?
9 - Otopharynx lithobates? (also pictured is a Malawi Eye Biter, Kenyi and Deepwater Hap).
10 - some kind of peacock
11 - some kind of peacock

Thanks!

1)Some type of female peacock would be my guess. Female peacocks pretty much all look alike.
2) Dimidiochromis kiwinge I think. Here's a picture I found online and that's what it was labeled as.

3)No idea, I'm not a hap person
4) Looks like a ruby red peacock and an OB peacock
5)Strawberry peacock would be guess as well
6) Not a bumble bee. Some sort of mbuna I think, a chubby one at that.
7) Sulfur head? Aulonocara Maylandi
8)Sunshine peacock, Aulonocara Baenschi
9)Not sure

I'm really not a hap or peacock person but hopefully it helps a little.
 
Blue, you changed a few pic #'s. There are 11 pics and actually, the Sunshine Peacock is in pic #10 and the Strawberry is in pic #7.
 
Oops, I was looking at the fish and numbering them not the pictures I guess it would be easier to number the pictures
