Cichlid Parrot Fish?

[Jamie87]

Okay. So..
I've been thinking of setting up a tank of my own. I am going to do a lot of research fist..just cause I want to do this right, and cause I just started working at petsmart and I want to learn my stuff.

I really like the Cichlid parrot fish.

But I want to find out a lot about em before I concider that to be the the main fish in the tank.

Um..

I would want more then just that kind of fish. So..
what can those get along with?
Are they aggrisive fish?
Also..
I once saw them in different colors..like green. I thought it looked awesome but I haven't seen any others around. Do they come in a lot of colors? The main ones I see are orange.

Any information would be helpful!

Thanks!

Hmm..I was just reading a bit about em. All this stuff bout em being dyed..that's not cool. I wouldn't want to suport that. Um..hm...still got lots to think over.

But still..any info/input would be nice.

thanks!
