1. Melano. johanni? Interruptus?
2. Labido. "Hongi"
3. Looks kind of like a Ps. Saulosi sub-dom male, but it's got way too many stripes.

 

[etcbrown]

1. m. interruptus

2. cynotilapia sp. jalo reef

3. not a saulosi, head shape is wrong and submarginal band is too irregular. Looks like it might be a lombardoi or crabro hybrid of some sort.

I was thinking lombardoi/crabro, too, after posting that.

Are we looking @ the same fish in #2? I think he means the orange dorsal one.

#2 looks like a Cynotilapia afra Hai Reef to me.

Second one doesn't look like any Cynotilapia that I've seen. Most Jalo Reef's have a significantly yellow dorsal - with no blue in it. Every Hai Reef I've see has barring into the dorsal, and they, too, are yellow in the dorsal.

I think to get the best identification on them, you need to get each male to really show its dominant coloration.
