Blood parrot cross

[mahsfish]

Just found out my bp is female. It laid eggs. What cichlids can it cross with that would make some interesting fry just for my own pleasure.

If you're talking about 'can', then practically any other Central American. But if you want something nice, then chances are better if poppa is something nice. If you want super aggression for example, flowerhorns would be the obvious choice - though their crosses are already quite common. Perhaps a jaguar? If you want it too look pretty, then something that's pretty - a Green Texan, Ellioti, EBJD perhaps, Trimac, Cutteri, etc. etc. etc.

The easiest thing to pair bp females with is a male cichlid fader srs faded redhead or red monkey, which ever kind it is if the male and the female are EXACTLY the same color, in cichlids it is harder to get the male to accept the female without beating the tar out of her, but if you get a big fat female the same colour as the male he will more often like her, its just what they are in to. You should use the divider method though regardless if you do not have her in a community...

She is actually in a divided tank with my rd fader but he is 4-5" and she is 2" and he's a bit too agressive for her although she does try to stand her ground while protected her eggs. A lip lock is the fh putting its mouth I've half her head.

1st pic is her 2nd is the male rd fader.
