Pic 2 is a Maylandia Callainos and pic 3 is a Maylandia Lombardoi. Not too sure on pic 1 as it looks like its not showing its full colouration, maybe an Elongatus.

Pic 1 and Pic 3 not Adult Male and Female Crabro ?
Only a guess.

Pic 3 is definately a sub adult male Lombardoi going through the colour change from blue to yellow. Could do with another pic of number 1 but i'm still going for Elongatus.

#1 might be an elongatus female, they sometimes are paler and a bit reddish/yellow (mine is), or a very stressed male. No crabros here.

Agree with 2 and 3

Reckon 1 maybe a mix of melanochromis species and something else.... i've only ever seen chequers like that on a johanni, but the body chape is all wrong.

 

[adambrum]

you might have problems with the id on 1 i had an almost identical fish it was sold to me as a melanchromis johanni but as druchii said the shapes wrong ?

I have two of the no 1s, they got sold to me as VC10 haps

The Latin name is placidochromis milomo

Number 1 is definately Mbuna, not placidochromis milomo but i suspect it is a hybrid of Johanni and something else, maybe Lombardoi or Elongatus.
