Looks nice. I have a Burundi colony myself in a 220.

How much do you know about the Red variant? I have heard various stories about them being everything from a collection point variant, line-bred, to injected with hormones. I prefer the regular coloration and believe it looks much more vibrant.

i dont know about the red variant. actually its like a brown color not totally red. i bought it in a LFS here in dubai. i saw some adult pics and it looks nice. bringing some contrasts with the blue fronts.

Don't know much about the reds, but I'm sure it will look sweet!

Looks good but you will eventualy need a bigger tank also have heatd fronts prefer a poorly lit tank. A poor lit tank though is more for breeding though and you are a ways from that yet. The red variation from what I read was from line breeding and they usually are a brown more than red.You don't see them much any more so anice find.

the reds are a cross hybreed as i used to breed fronties of all types i wish i had not at the time but i was aiming for pure line breed fish i feed them to my cichla they actully grow out not bad but have all sorts of health issues

if you plan on breeding your fish seperate them
