It is a Victorian Paralabidochromis Red Fin Piebald. I have the Paralabidochromis Chromogynos Piebald.

Here is a link. Make sure you look at all the pictures. With Piebald's some are darker some are lighter.

So do i have the chance of one turning to the darker color like the deep green and blue or will he keep his pickish color, what i think is the male the bigger one and the female is the smaller oranger one

He may turn redder. The blotches aka piebald will not change. The species Paralabidochromis Chromogynos Piebald may be the one you want.

You should not mix these Victorians as they will interbred.
