Just picked up this guy the other day since I had to get rid of my pair of convicts and this geo has a really nice color. The pics really don't do the justice but this is him:

Can someone put a correct ID on him? Im leaning towards Geophagus Altifrons "eartheater" (?) - Could someone tell me other wise? He was labeled at the LFS as assorted geophagus'

- Also another thing, I don't know if its normal but as you can see hes always swimming with my blood parrot and at times he will open his mouth and make weird gestures towards him.
However, the blood parrot doesn't seem to mind it. - Any suggestions?
 
Mines are like an inch lol. They had some bigger ones about 3" but they werent showing the red
 
nice redhump. get that boy some ladies. they are a harem species and do well with a single male and multiple females to spread aggression.

Why would I want to "spread" aggression though?

he means to spread aggression thinner so that its divided against several fish rather than just focused on one, anytime you see people talking about spreading around aggression on here among many different fish this is what they mean. its better to have many fish for it to chase around than just one that it will pester all day and night and stress it
