Hi Zero...is that a Red Head Tapajos in your avatar?

For everyone...

I'm setting up a 125g(72x18) C/S American tank and was wondering what you guys thought of this stock list.

3-Red Head Tapajos
2-Cryptoheros siquia "Honduran Red Points"
2-Cryptoheros Nanoluteus "Yellow Cons"
2-3 Hemichromis Lifalili (it's african but likes soft/neutral-acidic water)
2-Bristlenose Pleco's (these don't get huge like other pleco's)

All the fish will start out at less than 2" in size.

That's a beautiful looking fish in his avatar. I wonder what the history/background is on that particular fish.?.?.

I'm also curious as to what's the best food to feed the Red Heads for them to be that colorful as I've seen many photos from owners and few, if any, show fish as colorful as the one in Zero's avatar.

I'm probably getting my my stock from Ken Davis and Jeff Rapps so they should be quality fish. It sure would be nice if the Red Heads I get end up looking like Zero's avatar.
