Assorted Parrot Fish Hybrid Amphilophus citrinellus × Vieja melanurus 5cm

“Introducing the captivating Parrot Fish Hybrid, a stunning amalgamation of Amphilophus Citrinellus and Vieja melanurus, boasting a unique blend of colors and distinctive traits. Originating from the cichlid family, this hybrid embodies vibrant hues and engaging behavior, making it a standout choice for freshwater enthusiasts seeking a visually striking addition to their tanks.

Hailing from Central America, this hybrid inherits characteristics from both its parent species, showcasing a blend of brilliant colors and fascinating features that captivate any observer. With proper care, these hybrids flourish in spacious tanks with ample hiding spots and a diverse aquatic environment.

Feeding the Parrot Fish Hybrid is a delight, as they readily accept a varied diet comprising high-quality pellets, flakes, and occasional live or frozen foods like bloodworms or brine shrimp. Their omnivorous nature ensures a versatile and enjoyable feeding routine.

When considering tank mates, opt for species of similar size and temperament to ensure a harmonious environment. Peaceful cichlids or larger, non-aggressive tank mates can coexist comfortably with these hybrids, provided there’s enough space and hiding spots to reduce potential conflicts.

Known for their moderate temperament, the Parrot Fish Hybrid typically exhibits minimal aggression, especially in well-structured tanks with ample territories. However, monitoring their behavior during breeding periods or territorial disputes is advisable.

For aquarists, a moderate level of experience is recommended to care for these hybrids. Maintaining stable water parameters is essential: aim for temperatures around 75°F to 82°F (24°C to 28°C), pH levels ranging from 7.0 to 8.0, and moderately hard water with GH between 10 to 20 dGH.

The Parrot Fish Hybrid embodies the best of both parent species, offering enthusiasts a visually stunning and captivating addition to their freshwater aquariums.”
