El Jefe is a boss for sure. His form and color are really coming together nicely. He's got the quintessential Midas profile now too.
Good luck with getting your pair!

very nice fish ,how big is he ?
this is mine just starting to get a hump at 4" not including tail
How long with the tail? 6" or so? Where did you get him? Same look as the op's.

smaller male definitely has potential.
El Hefe started getting aggro on the females so I moved him to the divided section and moved the larger male in the with community a few weeks back. Been doing fine so far with his tank mates, still doesn't like me lol. He will be gone by the end of the month so I will move El Hefe back in once the tank is undivided. Heres some shots from tonight.

Nice fish.
Your link to a "parrot cichlid care sheet" is misleading. I'd add the word "Blood" to it.

Lol I never call True Parrot Cichlids that, I always say either True Parrot or Hoplarchus Psittacus. Anyone who knows me know I'm a hybrid guy lol. Care sheet isn't specific to Blood Parrots so thats why it doesn't say it.
The funny thing is is I'm pretty sure mine aren't waterlogged. The big piece and one of the long pieces were water logged when I got them but the other weren't and I'm pretty sure still aren't.
I don't know you and what you always say. You post in a forum that would suggest care for psittacus, nothwithstanding your guide to crossing species. My mistake.
Pics tomorrow. These weekend finally moving the other male and will take down the divider. Gonna also looking into UVs cause this algae is really pissing me off.
