I think the bigger ones are Pseudotropheus zebra, or Maylandia zebra var. albino. The striped blue fishes might be Pseudotropheus demasoni or Pseudotropheus saulosi (a clearer pic. would be better for a more precise ID). And the white fishes might be Pseudotropheus socolofi albino.
The seller said "pseudotropheus", the root beginning with "T" - Tropheus, I believe.
Hi,we just got a new fish tank and 3 pairs of fish ( a pair of large orange ones, a pair of small white , a pair of small blue stripped ones. the guy said some weird name (starting with T) which I forgot as soon as reached home. He did mention the bigger ones are aggressive hence would kill other kinds like goldfish, parrot fish etc but smaller stripped blue and milky white ones would be fine as they belong to the same family as the big ones. Are these gourami by any chance? pls assist in identifying them.
