He used to be really stressed out and pale but ever since i put my new fx5 on the tank he looks alot better and has developed a big head. We bought him as a parrot fish but i am not too sure about it anymore, maybe some kind of hybrid?

Can anyone give me an ID on this guy?

Here he is before the new filter:

hes been chasing all of the parrot fish out of his little cave but i think it paired up with one and they are digging together. Is that a good sign for breeding?
 
Also if you know what his value is that would be helpful.

I was about to sell him along with 7 other parrots for $40 but my parents didn't want to let them go, now i'm kinda glad i didn't go through with the sale.

is there any chance he will kill my fish in the tank? i know flowerhorns are really aggressive..
 
its hard to say you just need to watch ur fish and learn there attuide if its been ok in there for a while i would asume it would be fine the best way to tell though is just to keep a eye on him
 
Looks like a male parrot that got a little more of the rd/midas gene.Nice fish!As far as agression just keep an eye on him as he get big,I had a full grown male that would back down a RD but most are not that aggressive
 
well great it just killed one of my redtail prochilodus.. i checked them when i got home from class and everything was okay. i went out to buy food and my brother calls and say one of my fish is dead. i come home and find both his eyes missing. :(
