Here are pics of my new Cichlids. I was lucky enough to be find a good home for my previous stock of fish so I could start new. If I would have known more when I started my tank, I wouldn't have chosen the variety of fish I had. I've decided to try my hand at Cichlids - these were from an Assorted tank, if anyone can pinpoint their actual strand from the photos, I'd be very grateful.

I haven't named them yet - but I only have 3, an Orange one, a Yellow one and a Blue one. Here's the Orange...

The orange one is a Maylandia Estherae, also sometimes called a Pseudotropheus estherae or Metriaclima estherae.

The yellow one is a Labidochromis caeruleus, or yellow lab for short.

The third one I'm not completely sure, but it looks like a Pseudotropheus socolofi.

Great looking fish!
