Please help identifying these fishes...

Hi there all,

1) I've recently purchased 1 of these fishes at my lfs. He at first looked quite dull, but after I have given him specific cichlid food, he has become quite a beautiful fish. Can any of you guys identify him (her) ?




2) I have had this fish for quite some time and I have no clue what species this one is.




3) Someone told me this is a leopard cichlid. Is it true?

 

Hi There
No 3 looks like a venestus and no 1 look like a green terror. not too sure about no 2

 

I think #1 is probably a Green Terror??

 

1 could be a blue accara/ greenterror
2 bumbee chichlid i think they called
3 def a ventus

 

Hi, what you have here is a green terror : Aequidens rivulatus
a bumblebee cichlid : Pseudotropheus crabro
and a giraffe cichlid: nimbochromis venustus. A nice fat one

 

Second fish doesn't look like P.crabo. The crabo's I've got and bred, the colour differs and the heads are not so rounded.

Maybe @sarf could shed some light.

 

1st fish is definately a greem terror..which is not even from the african continent..2nd fish looks like s female haplochromis latifasciatus,but with a damaged mouth..they are very nice lake victorian cchlids..3rd fish is a nimbochromis venestus.

What are you feeding ur fish if I may ask?they seem to have very large extended bellies
