     I just purchased six Parrots at my LFS. The store is called Aquatic Environments.  Three are a light orange and three are a light blue, but the store told me that they will all turn red later on. They are all about two and a half inches long, kinda big for being newly aquired. I just added them to my 60 gallon tank and there are no other fish in the tank.  I will not be adding anything else because with six of these, I'm easily at my tanks capacity. But, I do have excellent filtration and circulation so I believe I'm good.

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum the new addition

I just purchased 2 BP's to house with my juvenile pink convicts. A few years ago I had a pair of BP's and they were a little shy. If you sat with them for a while they would come out, but they were frightened by movement, part of this was I was guilty of having them in a smaller tank than they would have preferred, but they lived out a good 6 or 7 years. These two parrots I have now, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, because of their attachment to each other are very friendly fish. They have also helped my little convicts to come out and be more friendly.

Beginning of an awesome fish

Tue, 09/25/2012 - 01:56 — BrokeinOrlando

Just bought my first Blood Parrot and I am really excited!!! I have always loved Cichlids and since I first seen a parrot I have wanted one or maybe 2 later on... I have had convicts and pinks that were paired up and loved to watch them build there nests and co exist!! They are so fun!! Anyways this is my first Blood Parrot and I didnt really know alot about them till I figured I had better learn something and looked them up online. I have a 35 ga show tank not a very complex setup, I like to keep it pretty simple.
