Semi Aggressive

The Parrot Cichlid is a beautiful, metallic-green species with bright red eyes that is native to flooded forest regions and blackwater habitats of South America. Parrot Cichlids (not to be confused with the man-made, hybrid, Blood Parrot "cichlids" that resemble fancy goldfish) are large Cichlids that get their scientific name "psittacus" based on parrots that are members of the Psitticidae family. Size 7cm

Parrot cichlids should be kept in a tank size of at least 55 gallons. Maintain a water temperature between 75-82°F (24-28°C) and a pH level of 6.5-7.5. Provide hiding spots and ample open swimming space. Feed them a varied diet including high-quality pellets, flakes, and occasional live or frozen foods. Ensure a well-filtered tank and perform regular water changes. Avoid keeping them with aggressive tankmates. Monitor their behavior and health closely, as they may be prone to swim bladder issues and deformed mouths.
