I saw these fish at the fish store. I asked the women working there about them she told me that they were regular parrot fish injected with color. When the color runs out it will become orange again. Whats the deal with these parrot fish? They look like they might have some firemouth or flowerhorn in it, what do you think.

To me, they look hybrid.
:duh:

Looks like unfaded parrots that is about to fade and at least some of them might be a Kirin Parrot.
 
A few of them do look kinda like they have flowerhorn in them..those few green ones. Gr. I'd snatch those up if I saw them. D:

There is a divider in the tank dividing the orange parrots and the parrots in question. By green are you referring to the whole group on the right? They were only around 7 dollars and I wanted to buy one. Just didn't want to be disappointed if it turns to a normal looking parrot fish.

Yes the group on the right. Never seen them with the green and red fins before. For $7 I'd buy at least one and see, it could go either way really.
