Name these fish

[Splash]

Hello,

We recently set up our first cichlid tank.  It's going well except I don't know the names of two of the fish, I forgot as soon as I got home from the aquarium.

Here are pics of them:

Can anyone help indentify these two?

Thanks

the top one looks like a female flameback of some discription and the second one looks like an alounacara sp. not to sure what type it may be a cross.

dude ring the aquarium   they should know  but dammn hard to tell em when young   the first could be flame back   red empress   fire blue or many other types   the second looks not quite right    maybe a sunshine peacock   or any of another thousand type     best bet is talk to the shop   which one was it    tks peter

First shot def. a Victorian, H.brownae or maybe X.phytophagus it's hard to say as these "Flamebacks' go as so many different names.

Second one is def a Peacock species, looks a little strange to be honest, I wouldnt say its a cross tho, there are a few peeps on here that LOVE their peacocks so I'm sure they will be able to help, my guess would be A. 'blue neon'
