From LH to RH
Leopard
Rose Red or Alenquer type cross
Solid Pigeons of some sort, probably crosses and what looks like a Blue Diamond or cobalt or related crosses
Most of these fish are really not something that you can pin a label on, my IDs are best guesses on what they look similar to. The Leopard and Rose Red are probably the only ones here that may be actual strains.
I don't mean to disparage your discus but these are often what are bought in bulk cheap and sold at Local Fish Shops. If you really want to have Discus that you are more sure of their ID you need to find a seller that specializes in them.

Their shape are mostly decent from the pics.. the leopard, red white, rose red have pretty good shape and potential. The pigeons are not terrible and with good food and care could be develop well. The heavily peppered pigeonxnon pigeon is probably a runt .. but that could be the picture angle.AquaticSuppliers.comFoods your Discus will Love!!!

Well that peppered one is the most aggressive and also gets bullied alot during feeding. As he is small he tries to be aggressive but gets beaten up when tries to go for the others lol. I got him the smallest size in this bunch. But he has grown an inch in a month with me. And is eating heavily. His stomach bulges huge and takes in a lot of food now. Just gets bullied alot because other fish are larger than him. Im feeding mainly beefheart and another high quality protein pallet sometimes. My beefheart is heavy on spirulina and garlic so it keeps their stomachs healthy. His eye size is big so yeah probably he has missed the mark to grow to his full potential.
