Blood Parrot Tankmates Compatibility

[subopposite]

I am setting up a tank at work. Luck me. They know I am the person to do it. Anyhow. A tank is being brought in and it already will have a blood parrot coming with it. I am not positive on the size. I do know it is anywhere form a 30 gallon to a 40 gallon. I do not plan on getting anymore blood parrots.
What other fish can be housed with these. I so far have read that these can go with them.
Blue acarras
Chocolat cichlids
Severums
Firemouths
Ghost Knife
Pleco
Clown Loach
Jardini

Lastly, I am not worried whatsoever about what size tankmates of theirs get. If they get too big, I bring them to the fish store and get good credit for them and someone else buys them up and is psyched to have a bigger fish to go with their already established tank. So again, adult size does not matter at all and I am mature enough not to keep a fish in a tank that they have outgrown. I just don't know much about Bloody Parrots as I am not a fan of hybrid fish, but one is alive and needs some friends, so help me out please.

I do have an orange chromide and a krib at home that I want to move out, so maybe they would work as tankmates?

BPS grow to about 8''.. and will eventually outgrow a 30-40g tank..

I'm not sure when you plan on rehoming the fish, but you would just be stunting most of those selections if you kept them in that tank for more then a month.

I wouldn't put a bp in there.. the only fish listed I would put in there would be a firemouth or 2.

This guy already has the blood parrot with the tank. If it is already too big or when it gets too big it would be moved. Rehoming is not a concern. I have multiple places I have brought fish back to and breed some community fish myself, hence the not being worried about the moving of any fish of mine.

You can't stunt a fish if you put it in their for only a month if you buy them as youths and let them grow. Sorry, but it takes a little longer than that for a fish to grow. Maybe not a fish that ends up being 2 feet long or something, but.... Unless you overfeed them I suppose, a lot. I don't do that though, so no worries for me on that one.

Like I don't know it will outgrow the tank. Did you read my post? Did you understand it? C'mon! I also don't have a problem keeping a fish for a few months and getting more. So, if you read the post and understood it, then you probably had no reason to even leave a post. I will figure this one out on my own. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out. Non-aggressive fish if cichlids, some rainbows probably and algae eater. Good job me. Vancouver, please ignore any message I post. Thanks.

Well, seeing as it's so easy to re-home and re-shuffle the fish in this tank, find the parrot a new home now and then consider the stocking and go for something that'll actualy work permanently.
