They look a bit stressed, however I've never seen this form. One thing I would add is some sand to the tanks, most of Chromidotilapiine cichlids like to dig in the substrate.

Knowing who posted them, I'm betting this is a photo tank only.

They are wholesalers, and as such, fish are almost always maintained in bare bottomed tanks. We all know this, right?
