Welcome to FishProfiles.

Picture 1: Some sort of Mbuna.

Picture 2: Angelfish.

Picture 3: Some sort of tetra (possibly albino?).

Picture 9: Possibly some kind of gourami?

Picture 10: Iridescent Shark.

picture 4 looks like some sort of chichlid

how do you not know what fish you have?

where they given to you by someone?

if you dont know what they are what are you feeding them? some of them fish will have different feeding requirements
and possible different water requirements but you have come to the right place for advice welcome to FP!

Pic 1 and 4 (and possibly 6) seem to be the same fish, don’t know which one though

Pic 3 and 5, same fish, my guess would be Lemon Tetra

Pic 2 and 8, Angel Fish

Pic 9, possibly a Gouramy (although missing a clear view on the tail fin), or maybe a sort of Rainbow

Pic 7, Deep Sea Diver

I don't see the fish in #6....

But I think #1 and #4 is a colbalt blue

#9 is probably a rainbow, or a female dwarf gourami. Most gouramis have alot of blues or reds, so unless it is a female dwarf, (very rarely sold) my guess is a rainbow.

The tetras you have look like a Hyphessobrycon species, most likely the albino form of the lemon tetra. I've never actually seen albino lemons, but the body and fins of your tetras remind me of lemons.

Your gourami does look like a dwarf gourami. It could be a female, they aren't that hard to find. Better and closer up pictures would help a lot with identification.

The tetra could also be a White Skirt Tetra.

White Skirts do not have red fins like Erling's tetras have, and neither do Lemons.

Has anyone else noticed that #9 looks like Kitten's "baby"? It could be some kind of barb, although I doubt it. The tetra is definitely not a white skirt, they are white and have a full body. These tetras are more streamlined. My guess is lemons, or a similar species. If the only difference is fin color, then I think the care would be the same as the lemons. Then again, we can not rule out them being a color variation of lemons than none of us have seen. Finally, the mumbuna is not an electric blue, which is longer, and is almost totally black except of the "electric" blue stripes.

Just some thoughts to spice up this discussion
