Gold Severum and Polar Blue Parrot breeding?
Although, they are making different color blood parrots now as well, and I donāt mean the way they did it in the past with dye injections. These new ones (that I know of) are āpanda parrots,ā black and white, and āSanta parrots,ā orange with a white spot on the head.- FishNturt808

Gold Severum and Polar Blue Parrot breeding?
Oh no. Once they get established in their territory all the convict comes out. I had a group of 7, 3 males, 4 females. And they were complete demons. Responsible for the death of 2 standard convicts, a firemouth, and a blue acara. Had to rehome most of them. (I kept 2) I even had the males in a...- FishNturt808

Gold Severum and Polar Blue Parrot breeding?
Polar blues have absolutely no blood parrot in their genetics. It is one of those industry falsehoods. They are just short body convicts, with a fancied up name.- FishNturt808

Youāll just have to trim it off after it runs itās course. At least thatās what I do with mine, which is flowering right now too!- FishNturt808

Why did my shrimp die. :(
The other two kinda nailed the advice on the head for ya. Ph, and hardness of water do tend to play into shrimp keeping more as well. So, if your water changes cause those numbers to fluctuate it could cause shrimps to die, especially the weaker immuned feeders. So Iāll just throw in, when...- FishNturt808

Flourish Glue? First time
Itās the same process as any other gel super glue. Put a little dab, place the plant, spritz it with water, place in the tank.- FishNturt808

Curious; Used tank prices
It depends on your location and whatās readily available. I think I paid 100$-150$ for a used 55 with stand. Which ended up leaking twice, from 2 different locations, so I have decided itās worth the extra money to just buy new. With filters, as long as you trash the media, and do a thorough...- FishNturt808

BP Cichlids in a 55 gallon
Due to being a hybrid, blood parrot males tend to be sterile. My female has laid eggs, however none hatched, even with the firemouth boyfriend she had at the time. In my opinion if you got them both young a pair of blood parrots would be fine in a 55.- FishNturt808

My tanksā¦.
Over the last couple months Iāve gone thru and re-arranged all my tanksā¦.Iām quite happy with them now. Most of the fish and plants are the same. Just a bit of rescaping and shuffling of fish. My flowerhorn did die. So I moved my blood parrot into the 75, and got some angels for the 40 (for the...- FishNturt808

Peacock gudgeons, one acting weird

One fish you really want but you dont have.
Most reputable places cover any shipping deaths. Iāve had to have a few fish shipped in. Iām in Hawaii, so they had to fly a long way, and theyāve all survived the shipping process. But it is winter now, so I guess most of the mainland has to worry about winter weather- FishNturt808

Thereās also the butterfly pleco. They get a little bigger than the zebra and clown, but from what Iāve read on them, with darker substrate they get the black/white stripes like the zebra- FishNturt808
