Now thats what Im talkin about!!! That male is awsome. I have been tring to create something that looks close to that guy. I have been breeding "devilhorn" (Midas or red devil x flowerhorn) with purple rose queen and parrots to see the outcome.

Here are my other devilhorn x parrot pair( This male came from my fh Zeus and my creamsicle midas)

parrots grow fairly quickly, feed them a varied diet.

From my experience they grow slow I feed my fish a large variety of pellet flake and frozen foods and regular water changes. I believe it depends on the individual fish when I grow out fry there are always a few that are twice the size of the rest even to adulthood and smaller . Imo parrot shape fish as fry would have a harder time surviving than regular shaped fry.
