The fish look like nyete. They also look like lobe. The two are very similar. When they are less stressed the males should lose the lateral line strip and get very green, wherease lobe will get orange/red. The nyete is the greenest of all the taeniatus. Your female looks very dark, but she is probably in display in the picture. When in breeding condition the female should have a rosy pink abdomen with the area around the abdomen very gold/yellow. There are several pictures of my nyete on this page:
