Thana - 2003-09-02 I have 16 of these lovely parrots..... in my 4feet aquarium.I do not know much about fish when i got them about 18 months ago, but I loved their splendid colour and charm.... They love to play around and sometimes even tend to exhibit group kinda acts... like when they gang up against my poor chiclids which lastest about a week.... CAUTION they can be hostile when new species is introduced in their old habitat. A friend of mine says that i should have mixed them from the beginning... I do not know but now they all alone ALL 16 of them...
Brizad - 2003-08-20 I currently own 2 of these fish, one being the pinkish/orange color, whose name is Bubbles. The other is actually a dark color with stripes along its side called Smiles. Bubbles is almost 3 inches long and Smiles is a little over 2 inches long. They actually seem to enjoy each others company and are always seen swimming with each other. Its almost like they keep playing tag with each other, or stop and stare at each other. I just love them and are a ton of fun to watch.
The Blood Parrot is just about the most curious result of cichlids interbreeding, and has created quite a stir in the aquarium hobby!
