Nice I have a 9" one of these guys she is almost 3 years old and still growing slowly.

These are really pretty fish. Are you going to start a breeding project? Looks like you have a lot of them.
 
Very cool - you don't see many of these. Are they full parrot cichlid or hybrid, and have they ever spawned?

they're hoplarchus psittacus, often refered to as the 'true parrot'.

blood parrots are a hybridised fish that do not occur in nature
