Hi MFKers,

Just brought in some really cute Short Body Green Terror Cichlids.

This is a fine round specimen measuring 8":

if its a bonsai than it is not GT x Parrot.









It is a Gt x Bp....Bonsai parrots are Bp x Fh, what exactly is a "bonsai Gt"? I already said what it is. I specifically asked and I was told by Fish-etc that they are Bp hybrids.....:popcorn:

I got it from Fishetc....He is a vendor here. 24.99 I got the last two out of the 100 that he had. He said he might get more in 2 months.....

Bonsai parrots are not FH x BP i already asked some flowerhorn breeders and they said it was a defformaty from inbreeding the fish. Kirin parrots are FH x BP hybrids.

Same thing....And I do not need a breeder to tell me that....Bp x Gt and thats that on that....
 
im deffinatly interested in theese guys i will jump all over a fertile parrot...... im wondering how much of the parrot you can bring out in theese guys without loosing the blue spangle and fin shape
 
These are just shot bodied GT's. No hybridization. Just a spinal deformity. No blood parrot involved. There are all kinds of shot bodied cichlids around. Look at "balloon" rams.

I've also heard that adding some heavy metals to the water like zinc can cause fry to grow like that. Would be interesting to see if they produced normal fry.
