These were both in the assorted cichlid tank. They appear to look like they come from the Labidochromis species.
They both look like my yellow labs with the black stripes in there fins. The second is much more orange in color compared to my yellow labs but resembles the same markings.

Here is a closer pic of the new fish (top) compared to the yellow lab

The first is a Pseudotropheus socolofi.

The second is a yellow lab. The markings and color on yellow labs will vary somewhat with diet, lighting, age and position in the tank hierarchy. Over the years I've had some that were more orange than yellow, and had others that were so pale they appeared white in bright light.

Ok thanks so much, my guess was a bit off on the first one.
