    They are more slender than the "tapajos" variety, also the red isnt as pronounced in them!

    Thanks for the info Aquatictrader.

    I have seen the parents to these and they are truly stunning fish. Alot of colour in the body and only the dominant male had a really red head. Very different to the pics of adult Tapajos I have seen. I actually thought they looked less slender (higher body) than the Tapajos

    It would be nice to see some good side by side shots of adult fish.

    Just an update on these guys, they've swapped hands now and are happily in a tank dedicated for them.
