Name that Parrot

Mon, 01/19/2009 - 01:45 — FreddyBoy

I have a 30 gallon tank with one parrot fish. When I bought it, I was told it was a jellybean parrot. After looking at many pictures, I'm not sure if it is a jellybean parrot or not. This fish is very aggressive when I clean his tank. He can close his mouth when he bites/eats. Can you help me identify my fish? Thanks!

no don't freak out. it is not a red devil. it is a king kong parrot. they can close their mouths most of the time. they get alot bigger than the average parrot so you will probably need a 40 long minimum. 55 would be better. if it stays small, it could be a real con X bp jellybean. most jellybeans are just short bodied convicts. yours it not one of those.

I dident know that king kong parrots could close their mouths, so are they still parrots (as we know them)

Re: Name that Parrot

you may have a red devil. they always house them in the tanks near the bps and they look very similar yet they can close their mouths. From what I hear they are very agressive and also get very big.

If he can close his mouth properly, hes not a parrot
