As I stated in my "welcome" thread I have rehomed a tank (and fish) but I do not know what fish these are and why one looks so deformed and if it's going to cause any problems?

Look like killifish to me. One on the right could possibly be something like golden wonder killifish.

I maybe wrong
 
Gold or Gold Wonder Panchax killifish. The fish on the left is a deformed female. They might still breed and produce good young. Let them have a tank of their own with lots of plants like Java Moss and Water Sprite, and see what happens.

Are they easy to breed? Most likely?
 
The male will swim next to the female and flare his fins. They sit next to each other and some plants and scatter eggs & sperm.
 
If the fish are well fed and the water is clean, they might start breeding tomorrow. If conditions aren't good, they might not breed.

Don't bother pm me because I never look at them. There are hundreds of messages sitting there and I just ignore them. It's nothing against you or anyone else, I just can't be bothered looking at them all.

That's ok no offence taken. It was more just to say a personal thanks than anything.

What sort of conditions/temperatures are best?
 
They aren't fussy and a temperature between 24-30C, pH around 6.8-7.5, GH below 150ppm will do for them.
