New fish

[Tooz100]

Got this little beauty from local guy but he said he didnt know what it was . I believe its a male and it's not a otopharynx lithobates , it does have a blue sheen to its body when the light catches it . Any help gratefully received .

The rear fish is most likely a red shoulder the front fish is absolutely a copadichromis but I don't think azureus
