    Default Red Head Tapajos

    Anyone have red head tapajos? I have a group of 7 fry I bought from Al August of last year and the larger ones are coming into their adult coloration. So two of them are cleaning a rock together. I'm guessing this is pre-spawning behavior?

    After some observation these two fish are playing at "shacking up". They will clean the rock and go chase some of the other fish. They are not really defending the rock. Some more maturing is needed I suspect.

    Looks like someone is going to be a grandma soon! some of the fry I kept from that group have laid eggs the last couple weeks ...so I think its possible yours will too.

    Very hard to get a decent picture of these guys. This one is just coming into adult coloration.
