Sup ya'll! I finally got some of these most amazing cichlids...the TRUE Parrot cichlids. Absolutely love them. Took me forever to get them though, glad that i did. Love showing them off...they are still pretty small right now...just starting to push 5" or so....anyway...enjoy! These were takin while they were still in the 20gal...they are in the 125 now and doing great. Had to take pictures of them just after they woke up...really hard to get a good picture of them........

No problem there! LOL!! They are eating like pigs!! Growing fast too...they are only about 3.5" in that picture...they are about almost 4.5" now...almost 5"...and they are really starting to color up. Bigger tank though, harder to get pictures. I shall try. Hey! You are in Omaha? I'm in Shelton...about an hour from Lincoln! That is pimp!! Always trying to find other Nebraskans that share my passion for the hobby!!

The Parrot is a great fish from what I have read. I'm hoping to get some in the future as well. Keep us posted with new pictures.
