Can't find any info on red plecos. Does anyone have any experience with them? Which one has the most red color and which one is the smallest?

You might want to browse the PlanetCatfish site. They have a really good catalog of what's out there. It's going to take some because there are several hundred variations.

Look into the super red bristlenose. They might fit your bill and not cost an arm or leg.

"red lizard" is about the reddest.
Mine was more red than any of these pictures.

L10a is a good choice here is another that people never think of a l306 red tiger

These are pretty scarce in United States as they are banned as far as I know but good in Canada .... I have a couple and they are beauty's!
