Panda Parrot Fish

Panda Parrots have a patchy panda-like black and white pattern. The pattern and coloration in these fish is highly variable and the fish you receive will have a different pattern than the representative shown here. Color and patterns on any Parrots may change over time.

As cichlids, Parrots may become territorial when established though they are generally far less aggressive than the natural Midas Cichlid. Their body shape makes them less mobile and aggressive and the Parrots should not be kept with very aggressive tankmates or with very small or docile tankmates and may prey on some invertebrates like shrimp. Suitable tankmates would be fish with a similar temperament like Geophagus, Severums, catfish and similar fish. They can be fed a varied diet of pellets and frozen foods and formulas
