Help identifying young cichlids

Orange cichlid, I think.

Pink and Blue, and dark one hiding?

Not shy, peach coloured one is a mystery.

Can anyone ID these for me?

The orange cichlid looks like a Metriacilma Estherae to me. I'm pretty sure the blue one in your second photo is a Metriaclima lombardoi. As for the others, I'm not entirely sure, but I'm happy to try and help you figure it out.

The 3rd one reminds me of a haplochromis, I'm thinking it might be one of those. I could be off the mark, but it bears a resemblance to my own hap. sp 35s.
