Jelly Bean Parrot Cichlids

Hi, hi! I just found some undyed, home grown Jelly Bean Parrot Cichlids. Should I just have one or could I have three? Now I just have to get my tank set up! Yay!

Kirin or Kilin Parrot Flowerhorn Cichlids

Does anyone have an opinion on Parrot Flowerhorns? Are they more aggressive? I read an odd statement that their creation had some inhumane methods.

My New Blood Parrot

Hi guys! It has been a while. I have recently moved and had to sell all of my tanks except one. I have a 40 gallon breeder that I was able to keep. My family and I moved from Memphis, TN to Savannah, GA.   So we are in a much smaller house here and,  I had to sell all of my beautiful tanks and fish. So the fish that I chose of course to keep in my 40 is a blood parrot of course. I bought this parrot from a local shop that had it labled as a kingkong parrot. It does look a little different than other blood parrots that I have seen.

Midas Cichlid

In another post I mentioned that I have a BP that is a major tank bully. I believe I may have been incorrectly sold a Midas Cichild, which I have now read can be very aggressive. Are these even in the BP family? I am now not sure what to do with my tank Bully. Can anyone offer any insight on differences / comparisons or any experience with Midas vs the BP?

 

Thank you

Parrott x Vieja Syn hybrid

Hello everyone,  I am ecstatic to find out that my parrott/vieja syn cross have laid some eggs.  The story behind this is something unusual.  I bought these odd looking vieja synspilum cross with blood parrot from a gal who wanted to get it of them for $1 a piece.  I thought what the heck, they are unsual looking.  They have long body of vieja but with parrot face (I will load picture once I find out how soon).  Anyway, they are now somewhat 1.5yrs old and started to breed two days ago.  There were about ~80 eggs and most turned white but this morning I fo

My blue parrot faded color

Hi, my blue parrot was very briight blue color when I purchased him and now after several weeks, the color faded with only a tint of blue left.  Is it normal or am I doing something wrong?  Maybe the water hot/cold causes to change its color?  Someone please help and advise.  Thanks!!

New baby parrots!

Hi everyone, so yesterday I purchased two baby (very small) parrotfish so keep my larger adult parrot fish company. One baby is pure white, and one is bright red (like the adult). The adult doesn't seem to mind the white parrot, he only chases her occasionally, but the orange one he chases all the time! Do you think this is because they are the same color? Also, I know its only been a day and I shouldn't be too worried, but how long does it take for them to become friends? also, the white parrot, will she change color? Thanks

Parrot fish coloration/baby parrots

Hii I was wondering if all parrot fish eventually turn orange. At petsmart they have large parrot fish that are a pretty orange and then they also have tiny parrot fish that are black with stripes. I'm assuming these are babies but when I asked the woman at the fish counter she said they will not turn orange as they age and that they were bred that color. Is this true? Thanks!
