you can tell by its lip.a parrot wouldent have lips like that they are more heart shaped

blood parrots will readily breed with a red devil/midas and the more often they bred together, the less the fry look like blood parrots (with oddly shaped mouth and body shape) and the more they resemble the midas/red devil. in a couple of pics you've posted it appears that your red devil has some hint of blood parrot and that would explain the slow growth. :)
 
I agree the first pic looks like a BP, but c'mon people. Havn't you guys seen a Rd that looked like that? C'mon now, thats how alot of juvies look after they have been fed. My Rd/Midas in my avatar used to look just like him just 3 months ago after a good feeding. :ROFL:
 
i doubt the tank size is the problem. if it is an rd/midas, i figure it would get noticeably huge for a 29g before stunting is a concern
