These were in the "Assorted Cichlid" tank, any clue what they may be?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Some sort of African Cichlid it would appear from that website, from what I can see it has no specific name but maybe someone with more cichlid experience could tell ya cuz I don't have any. ^^; hth?

They look like hybrids to me but I am no expert. I'd assume they are some type of Victorian haplochromis. You might find some help in the profiles section of cichlid-forum.com, where they have hundreds of photos. Sometimes juvenile coloration is different than adult, so keep that in mind when you search.
