Hi everybody!
Here I am with a first set (separated in two parts to avoid seeing too many pictures at the same time) of pictures on which I need your insights.
I have taken them in a very nice small aquarium located in the french city of Lyon (center-east of France). The labelling system wasn't always accurate and I couldn't find these specie's name.
So here we go for the first part :

1/ That one was labelled as Apistogramma macmasteri but I have doubts

That's it for the first part! In advance, thank you very much for any help you can provide.
Please, if you find the name of one of these species, could you precise its scientific name as I sometimes have trouble to find the translation for english names.
Thanks!!
 
First looks like an Apistogramma species. The rest are African Cichlids, so maybe creating a post in the African section, with a link to this thread, may get you the Identifications you need.
 
The yellow one is a yellow lab.

Yellow lab normally have a black stripe on their dorsal fin. This one seems to be a male, judging by the yellow dots it has. I think it is something different.
There are quite a few variations of Labs. Either it's a variation or a hybrid between a Labidochromis Cearlus (sp) or metriaclima estherae.
