Hey Guys,
I purchased this fish from the petstore the other day, the fish was bred by one of the staff from the shop. he says that its a parrot cichlid cross convict? is there a name for this hybrid? is it common
I know your not ment to mix africans/new worlds together but i did... they get along fine his the biggest in the tank at the moment but not the most aggressive. Also is it male or female? how do u tell ?

looks more like con x nic to me but can kind of see the parrot in there.... a true mutt though lol. Nice looking in a way tho
 
I don't see any parrot in it tbh. :/ I wouldn't say Convict either. :huh: some kind of Cryptoheros for sure though. Possibly Cutteri. Has a male body shape but usually when the vertical line extends to the dorsal fin they're female. :dunno:

Good call with the Nic, Andy.

I really like it anyway! Nice buy. Not ideal being kept with Africans though.
