Hi Everyone!

I've seen some black parrot cichlids.I'd like to buy one but I don't know that would they lose the black color or they will stay black?
If you can help me please reply.

Thanks:Zsolt

Black parrot

I have seen many black parrot fish on the internet and in petsmart that are not dyed. Most are young and who kows may change color. I think this is uncmmon and nothing may be wrong with the fish.

Hi

I would not be supprized if its completely covered with Black spot disease and the lfs is selling it as a black parrot or has to 100% dyed.

In my 14yrs of fishkeeping have never seen a black parrot.

I would suggest you do not buy it.

Black Red parrots

Research all you can about dyed fish (done by first dipping them in acid then injecting them with colour)don't always believe what the shop tells you, then you can make an informed choice if in doubt please don't!natural colours are normally golden, red or orange when adult,grayish when young,
