What is a Yuan Bao Blood Parrot?

[JSpilo]

For certain. But my wife only allows me to own 1 large fish. Might be years from now.

If you do get one can you'd please tell me who you bought it from and how much it costs. In the future I really want a breeding pair but I don't know any sources or the cost of a pair, so info like that would be appreciated.

That would be a Chinese Mammon Parrot, a high-end version of the King Kong parrot, as far as I know.
Since you're from America, you'll be dealing with people who breed the 'American' version of the strain. The original Chinese one that you're looking at has that HUGE nuchal hump, with a nicely rounded body and getting to somewhere around 14", larger than the American strain, which starts out looking a little more like an arrow-shaped fish. As for fertility, the American version is infertile as far as I know currently (I've had a pair before, they failed, and I'm trying another pair right now, I'll try to show them.), while I think that the original is capable of breeding. Dunno, I'm not an expert, please don't quote me for evidence.

I'm thinking a Red Mammon will be my next fish. Yup.

Would be costly to get one for sure. I am not a big fan as there is less variation compared to kamfas. I like how there is no similar fish as mine or yours.

Agreed. Very unique ?

My wife named the fish today. Her new name is Greedy Greta.

By far better/more natural looking parrots. Reminds me of my King Kong parrot I used to have at one point except I nicer color.

Sometimes regular parrots fill out when mature and the notch is less pronounced.

Yeah but there are also some on the opposite end of that scale where they just get so heavily notched that it almost looks like somebody just glued a face to a balloon. Lol some ppl like that but it's just not my cup of tea. Loved how the King Kong I had looked, very spherical fish with a head that looked like it belonged to the body.
