The yellow kinda one

Tough to see in the photo, but most likely one of the worm eels. I would not buy it! They live buried in the sand most of the time. If you see them for sale, they have almost always been collected with cyanide (to drive them out of the sand) and that can cause latent mortality in the fish collected that way.

Here is a possible species:

Worm eel (Muraenichthys)
