Theres one parrot in the 75g but the male texas is not interested at her, any tip on how to pair them up or do i need more parrots? If so how many more(minimum possible)?
 
just wondering, but why do you want them to pair up?
 
Give them time. Try warm water. I did it in a 50 tall. You might get lucky like me and get a few of these.:D

wow thats a lot of flowerpots spizz, and that rt has nice color but lack of pearls.
My wild caught female carpintis was murdered last night by the male and her belly was full of eggs. So I'm back to breeding red texas again.
My parrot laid eggs with convict, first batch was laid by kkp and second batch laid by female convict, so i am confused with the parrot's gender now. How many parrots did you have with escondido?
 
Their bellies are not full of fry...They lay eggs. Here is one with a little more pearling.

wow this one is stunning, its pearl look much nicer than your carpintis!! Did this one peel/fade?
 
Incredible, they have paired up. While making circles and swapping tails, the male does not atk kkp, it has never been that nice to the female carpintis.
One thing i don't understand is while circling around, the parrot swims vertically(its scrubbing its nose against the base where they are going to lay eggs).
 
taken from far distance thus fuzzy.
