blood parrots can easily reach 8 inches in length and should be kept in a tank no smaller than 40 gallons.

jelly bean parrots reach about 6" and need a minimum of 33 gallon tank.

Hi, great site for blood parrots is Parrotcichlid.com. Ellen is great runs a great site. Very good information about blood parrots. I have three of them and love them. They are such funny fish. Almost like a fish puppy dog. Beware, they can kill an oscar. One lady had a few in with an oscar, and the the oscar did not make it. Good luck Lynda

i have 3 red oscars in with the parrot fish (blood) if the oscars breed will the fry be well protected against the parrot fish?

The pair of Oscars will probably kill the Parrot once they spawn, unless the tank is very large (at least 6 feet long), so yes - I'd say the fry would be fairly well protected.

LFS's will usually take custom orders. Just ask. I do that ocasionally.
