I guess you can make an argument for the correctness of the red/blue tag.
Males A. sp. "Tucurui" have some blue on the dorsal and anal fins and a
series of parallel reddish-brown dots. However, in the absence of another
color form I'll have to say that it's another selling gimmick.

Gary is right about the spotted scalares. This are common in the Rio Nanay,
Peru. I've also read a report in one of the Aqualog News mentioning a
scalare from the Rio Negro with red caudal fins and, to a lesser degree,
red dorsal and anal fins. The author was John Dawes. I'd like to see this
angel.
