As lot of you know, I sold my FH and kept my parrots and jumped into saltwater over a year ago. Well today, at my LFS, they had Balloon Texas and Balloon Green Terrors. The GT's were nasty as all he!!. So, I went with the balloon texas. He is pretty small, shaped like a parrot with texas colors. I will post pics later when he gets all settled in. He almost looks like a Kirin Parrot with texas markings. The LFS said the GT's were thrashing the Texas hybrids so I grabbed one. Kinda curious how he'll grow out. Will post pics later. Anyone with info. on them lemme know.
 
Can't wait to see the pics bro. How are your parrots doing by the way?

Hey Chris....parrots are huge. My wife loves 'em. They just follow us all over the room. Then we have the 4 clown loaches with them. They are like 5-6" each. Its an amusing tank. I think the green texas mess will fit in really well. He's already very brave and roaming all over the tank. Looks like your tanks are doing well. I was actually lookin for a SB RD, but didnt want to have to get rid of him again due to tank size. If I ever break down my saltwater reef (90g) Ill grab a nice red dragon for that tank. Whats new with you anything??
