Hmm, piebald red devil? Where are you purchasing it from? Lfs or ordering?

Holy fudge you are good. Except it is either yellow or orange (forgot) with black splotches, he was slightly scratched up at the time because he was a new import and with rd's twice his size, 2 weeks later he should be good. It is a rescue, well from a lfs, they have him with a bunch of other large rd's and the water is disgusting. He is a great specimen with nice teeth and glass banger temperament.

The red devil was sick and under observation. I picked up a 3" GT instead and am much more happier than i would've been with a RD, he is very active and eating on his first day, he is very aggressive but not presenting any problems for the giant danios.

Here are the pics:
There he is in the bag

Still working on my photography skills. Fish are so addicting.
 
well IME, you stand a whole lot better chance having a community tank with a GT than a red devil...so maybe youre better off. My RD wouldnt let anything live in "his" 125 once he hit about 7 inches...
