I'm rubbish at id'ing cichlids, but the second pic looks more like a jewel cichlid than any malawi I've seen.

The blue mbuna is a Pseudotropheus demasoni. The top one kind of looks like a Protomelas taeniolatus with little colour. The last is a jewel cichlid.

Definitely not. Wrong shape and wrong mouth type.

Can't say, never kept them myself! Looks like the lights off for pictures, tends to dull the fish a bit!
