looking for a jellybean cichlid, a jellybean cichlid is the result of a Pink convict cichlid x blood parrot cichlid. Im a big convict fan and im doing some hybrid projects for convicts plus i love these short body convicts lol. If you have any please call or text me at 410-800-9742.
 
They actually are shortbody convicts, not hybrids.
I have offspring from my female - but they do not show jellybean shape - but obviously if it's genetic, they are hets, if you want to try some.
 
They are hybrids, i made them myself 2 years ago. I used a 5inch pink convict male and a female blood parrot and i made some some nice jellybean cichlids. If you have convicts with short bodies then there is parrot in there blood whether you know it or not.
 
I will have to respectfully disagree. There's no parrot in mine.

This makes me wonder why you are looking for them, then? Just make more of your hybrids :)
 
Wrong Ernie, Jellybean Parrots are nothing more than Shortbody Pink Convicts and are in fact not a hybrid fish. Blood Parrot x Convict are something else entirely. The shorty body gene is a deformity and not the result of crossing in Parrot Cichlids.
