Confused Blood parrot.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What your looking for is a King Kong Parrot. But not all males are gonna grow the hump and if they do its not necessarily gonna grow big. Doesn't start to develop until they are larger, not exact age can be confirmed.

I have seen Blood Parrots grow them but I have seen more King Kong Parrots grow them.
 
Blood parrots do not grow these.
The hump is on the more rare species of this cross. Like Mammon parrots, king kong parrots, or rose queens.
 
Then is this one a Blood or KKP? All the same parrot, grew a small hump.

Will it be difficult to get locally?

If your in singapore im sure it wouldnt be too hard to find one of these guys. Just need to find the right people. If not you could find a decent one on aquabid.com from a respectable breeder.

Chris- Thats one of the fish that can go either way. Either a low grade KKP or a Higher grade BP. The names change when the quality goes up. KKP can usually close their mouths. Parrot-blood parrot-KKP-Mammon

*Thats not a flowerhorn x BP.
It seems like you want a Midas cichlid, Not a Blood parrot. And finding one to the quality of ShechialEds is not going to be easy. Yes, They are highly agressive, but usally fine with big fish like pbass and dats.
