what makes up MY parrot?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
but you have to admit it has an odd shape jaw structure for a parrot. solara, jorys parrot fish just about the same size as yours and has no coloring or another details that prove its a Flower Horn X Parrot fish. im not say theres not a possibility that its a FH X parrot just very unlikely. i have a 3 in parrot fish thats half done peeling. ill try and post pics
 
There are LOTS of people on this forum that doesn't know jack about what they are talking about. calling JingKangs SRTs and all LOL!!!!!!!

This is just a unfaded(will fade soon) blood parrot that got a little more of red devil or midas gene, hence the mouth is normal. Other people also call these type KKP( King Kong Parrot) like I stated before.

he seems to have far too much spangling. thats honestly why i thought he was part firemouth. the pictures dont exactly due him justice though.

thanks for all the replies!
well i was wondering more about his body(head) shape, why is it so normal looking?
also what does unpeeled mean?

a batch of parrots turn out either the blood parrot or the higher end kkp. there is also a middle fish that you have that I have been seeing more and more like your fish. My guess is breeders have gotten better and culling the more valuable kkp from the batch and are letting these not quite kkp go out with the bp batchs. These guys will have a pointer mouth then a KKP and pron wont develop any kind of hump like the kkp.

And this is how juvi bp look. Take a look at the red devil, they look like 2 different fish once they peal.
 
you got your answer what are you digging for its a juvi parrot
