The Red Parrot Cichlid, often simply called the Red Parrot, is a vibrant and uniquely shaped freshwater fish that adds a bold splash of color to any aquarium. At 3 inches, this fish is still in its juvenile stage, but it already exhibits the striking red-orange coloration that it is known for.

The Red Parrot is distinguished by its round body, beak-like mouth, and vivid coloration, which becomes even more intense as the fish matures. This hybrid cichlid is known for its playful personality and can become quite interactive with its owner, making it a popular choice for those looking for a pet-like fish.

This species thrives in a well-maintained aquarium with plenty of hiding spots, such as caves, rocks, and driftwood, which mimic its natural environment and help reduce stress. The Red Parrot prefers water temperatures between 24-28°C and a pH range of 6.5-7.5.

Red Parrot Cichlids are generally peaceful, though they can be territorial, especially during breeding. They can coexist with other similarly sized fish but should not be housed with very aggressive species or those that might nip at their fins.

In terms of diet, Red Parrots are omnivores and enjoy a varied diet of high-quality pellets, flakes, and occasional live or frozen foods like bloodworms or brine shrimp. Providing a balanced diet is essential to maintain their vibrant color and overall health.

The Red Parrot is a lively and colorful addition to any aquarium, known for its unique appearance and engaging behavior. Its bright red hue and distinctive shape make it a focal point in any tank, appealing to both novice and experienced aquarists.
