I don't normally like sevs but this guy is an exception. What a beautiful fish! Do you just have this one?

I've been waiting for people to start posting these to see how they look. From Rapps pics, they looked like they blended the red shoulder from rotkiels and the blue body from turquoise sevs. I really like these alot and hope to get some in the future. Great looking fish!

These have been available a few times before as Heros sp. Tapajos, or Heros sp. Tapajos Red Spot:

I bought some from Jeff a few years ago labeled as such but they ended up being rotkeils, or at least very rotkeil-like.
