A club for owners of Parrot Cichlids

I have found this and wonder what kind of parrot it is? (If labeled correctly.)

i went to petsmart and bought 4 fish they have the same exact shape and deformities as a blood parrot but they have more or less the colorations of a convict. there colors vary from fish to fish. now at the pet store they were labeled as severums. and the lady who was there told me thats what they were. i didnt quite believe her and they were 2.99 each so i bought all of them to stick in my former oscar tank with a 5 inch blood parrot and a 7 inch pleco. the unidentified fish were about the same size as my BP when i bought it and i doubt they are jellybeans.

Also known as Blood Parrot Cichlids, or BP's for short, Parrot Cichlids are a man-made hybrid of at least two kinds of Central American fish: the Red-headed Cichlid and the Red Devil. Although these original species are very aggressive, Parrot Cichlids have very different characteristics. They make great pets! They're both curious and intelligent, and are fascinating to watch if you are willing to put in the effort to care for the large tank they require.

Hello I just joined this site and I can't believe i actually bought a pair. or at least i hope a pair of King kong Parrots.

They are currently in a 29 gallon tank and are about 2 inches or so. My guestion is whats the difference between King Kong and a reg. Parrot?

The lady at the fish store assured me that they are King Kong. They are mostly orange/whitish with a little black on the face. Really cute little things and I named them Pinky and Winky. Name seems to fit them

lol.

I would like to buy a pair or 2 of Jellybean parrot fish. I live in the USA and would need them to be shipped. If you have some for sale please email me cinlloyd@yahoo.com. I had a pair of these fish in early 2000. I moved and gave them back to the petshop they bred like the convicts. I'm wanting to put them in a tank with convicts. Thanks,

i can't figure out whether or not i really have a parrot fish. the store told me it was and it looks like one but i've also heard that red devils look exactly like them.

My so called parrot fish is bright orange and has white rimmed eyes and very aggressive. my sister has one too, it's orange the same color as mine but its eyes are black and its also not aggressive. i would appreciate it if someone could help me figure this out.

I was given 5 parrotfish. They are sadly, dyed. I have 3 red+blue striped, 1 black striped and 1 w/ hearts on it. They all have a cream body color. The black striped male and 2 female red+blue striped bred.(Was not aware that 2 females would participate in brooding w/ 1 male) They had about 20 fry. I have since seperated them w/ a tank divider.

i just picked up two parrots from my lfs, they were marked as " bloody parrots" , but they are a gray in color, have the black areas along its body, and on of them has bright green dots on its rear fin, i know its not dyed, its a natural looking color. just wonderinf if i picked up flowerhorn parrots or just normal ones.

My husband being angry that our 3 yr old had killed his HUGE Oscar came home with a small puffer and 2 " painted Parrot fish" from town. He knew they were part of the Cichlid family (getting revenge, the whole family wanted mellow fish like mollies, guppies, zebras, tetras, which I'd already put in the tank 4 weeks prior). Well leave it to a 3 yr old, she killed the puffer, over fed them and the pH, ammonia, nitrates, nitrites all went shooting thru the roof!

I just saw the this fish today 1/27/08 at the local pet store. I try to find it on the net but unsuccesful. Does any one know about this new breed? I would surely like to know more about it.
