One of the appeals for blood parrots is they look somewhat like a fancy goldfish. So they meshed this with colors and the aggressiveness of a cichlid. So this is the appeal for people who see and buy them.


Most of these people dont know they arent a real cichlid. They make alot of money, so they are popular and shops stock them.
 
Cruel, horrible industry trick. Most who buy them think they are cute and that's all it takes to get dummies to drop a coin on them.
 
It's cruel to mutilate and dye fish, but that's no reason to hate natural orange parrots. They're awsome friendly fish that I totally love and intend to keep around for many years to come.
 
in the picture it looks like a chinese/japense child is looking at them.

i recently read in a magazine about how the chinese/japanese keep experimenting with fish and how they can make them look different and cool and want to try and breed them like that to form a new breed.

i think its all wrong and is being taken far too far.

Yeh try and cross breed fish but let it happen naturally with no hormone boosters etc
