I'm trying to figure out what type of Malawi Cichlid I have. Can anyone help me with that?
Also, when do they usually start breeding?

Re: identifying a malawi cichlid
Hii, a few of your Malawi Cichlids resemble Metriaclima species, particularly the OB morphs, but it's tough to pinpoint at their current age. The striped one at the bottom might be a Metriaclima lombardio, though I'm not entirely confident. They'll need to grow a bit more before we can make a more accurate ID. Generally, most mbuna species start breeding between 3-4 inches in length, so considering their current size and depending on your tank size, it could take anywhere from 6-12 months.
