Dan's Fish has Red Head Tapajos, or as they've been recently described, Geophagus pyrocephalus.
I’m just wondering if the term red head and orange head are just used interchangeably …basically I’m wondering if it is the same fish?
My 2 adult Satanoperca Leucosticta (stunned growth though). From what research I was able to do, these likely originated from Guyana, or if tank bred, their parents (did some research into the facial speckles).
The same 2 Leucosticta, but in bright, natural sunlight
My biggest Satanoperca Mapiritensis (about 26-27cm (10,2-10,6 inches), He’s a big one (don’t have one of my Mapiris on photo in natural sunligh.

These were marked as geophagus balzani at the lfs, don't look like the same markings I've found online of balzani, but maybe just juvenile colors?
