I've recently been looking at a Paratheraps zonatum with some red on it. Most of the ones I've seen pictures of don't have red. Have any of you seen red on a zonatum?
 
I actually bought a P. fenestratus "blue" that turned out to be zonatus. These two get mixed up all the time.

The only red a zonatus should have is on the unpaired fins, not on the face/throat.

The only red in a Zonatum aree on the edges of the fins.
