Origin

Tank Mates
Blood Red Parrot Cichlids are generally peaceful for cichlids and do well in community tanks with compatible species. Ideal tank mates include:
-
Severums
-
Angelfish
-
Silver dollars
-
Large tetras
-
Peaceful catfish (such as plecos or synodontis)
Avoid very aggressive fish or small species that may be bullied. A spacious tank helps reduce territorial behavior.
Diet
These fish are omnivores and thrive on a varied diet. We recommend:
-
High-quality cichlid pellets or granules
-
Frozen or live foods (bloodworms, brine shrimp)
-
Occasional vegetable-based foods or spirulina
A balanced diet helps maintain their intense red coloration and overall health.
