My blood parrot is a really light peach color and she's the boss of the tank, and I feed her spectrum and she looks healthy, how do I get her to bring out her colors?. I have a nice orange baby parrot. Not really sure why the baby is orange and my dominant parrot is light peach, help?

just have them at 84 degrees. Feed them trusted good food. Dont over feed leaving left overs floating around. They will loook at their best. And whatever colors they become, it's just their genetic. Maybe she just laid eggs or some kind of mood.. Is it always light color? How long you had them

Umm isn't 84 degrees waayy too warm??? And sometimes she's a little more colorful then usual not
Anywhere near orange and I'm pretty sure 84 degrees will kill most fish..

I keep my cichlids at 82f, I dont like keeping them under 80F as they always seem better with it higher. Good food and a black tank really makes there color pop better but ultimately it comes down to genetics.
