Please ID my Cichlids?!?

OK, I got a movie of my 5 Cichlids posted on a site, but unfortunatly the site has nothing to do with tropical fish. Just click on the link in the bottom right that says something about my 29 gallon tank and help me ID! It will only be up this weekend, so hurry! Thanks!

Thanks so much...

I've tried to watch the movie and it doesn't work on my end. Sorry TOny. If you have some pics that would work a lot better. Not all of us have DSL.

Yeah, its 5mb, but if you give it the time its worth it. All the pictures I took were distorting the colors.

I just read your other post, could they be Acei's? I gave the download about a half hour and it didn't move past Connecting....

Ok, thanks to the extremely helpful people on this site, I think I have positively identified the five Cichlids:

2- Pseudotropheus Acei from Lake Malwai
3- Melanochromis cyaneorhabdos "New Maingano 2-Stripe" from Lake Malawi

Are there nicknames for these type of Cichlids so I when I tell people what type of fish I have I don't need a dictionary? I assume the first ones are called Aceis? Also, how big will these guys get in my tank? Anyone disagree with the species based on the short movie?

As far as I know, there isn't a nickname for the Acei's. I'm not sure about the other ones though. I'm going to post the reply on your other thread to avoid duplication.
