Can Bloody Parrots & Cichlids get long? If yes, what kind of Cichlids can i get? I recently very interest in Cichlids.

They can get along with any Cichlids that aren't overly agressive. Parrots are USUALLY peaceful (however there are some Parrots that can be very aggressive - since it's a hybrid you don't really know what you're getting temperment wise).

So...any of the more peaceful Cichlids would do fine.........Kribs, Keyholes, Severums, etc...etc..

Good luck :)

PS...make sure you have enough tank space :)

I have mine with Severums-
But the parrot is kinda pushy!
Not real aggressive but BOSSY.

Sometimes the Severums get a little tired of it.

But nothing to be worried about.

They do need space.

They are a mix of Severum and Red Devil.

Severum usually peaceful
Red Devil- Most are aggressive-

Can go either way w/ Parrot
