First one looks like a female flame gourami.

Second one is some type of rift cichlid, possibly a kenyi.

the first one is a female paradise fish and the second is probably mbuna, very aggressive cichlid.

2 of my yellows look like that, with no black, and a pale yellow coloring. the others are a deep yellow with very pronounced black markings. it could very easily be a hybrid, or possibly just a variation....

the bottom one is a yellow lab hybrid. Do a google search on "all yellow lab" or "all-yellow lab" and you will find pictures that look exactly like yours.

^agreed, yours will likely need to be rehoused. they need harder water and different requirements.

Link for the paradise fish.
