I personally love The Cichlids and Other Fishes of Lake Malawi by Ad Konnings, and The Cichlids and Other Fishes of Lake Tanganyika by Pierre Brichard. They both have tons of species identified, and lots of pictures from the lakes.

Another good title is "The Cichlid Aquarium" by Paul Loiselle. The first two mentioned are very large books and can be expensive. (Good but dated info in both). The Cichlid Aquarium is also dated, but deals with many more kinds of cichlids.
