Polar Blue Parrot Cichlids

These stout, round-bodied fish are a fascinating man-made hybrid, likely crossing the Convict Cichlid with a Blood Parrot. They pack a massive personality into a small, blue-marbled frame. Unlike their larger Parrot Cichlid cousins, they stay quite manageable in size and are known for being surprisingly hardy. They love exploring rocky nooks and crannies, often rearranging small bits of substrate to their liking. These are active, curious fish that will quickly learn to recognize who brings them food.

• Provide plenty of clay pots or rock caves for hiding and territory.
• Keep them in at least a 30-gallon tank to manage their active nature and waste.
• They accept almost any high-quality pellet, flake, or frozen treat offered.
• Expect moderate aggression, especially if they decide to form a pair.
