The blood parrot cichlid (or more commonly and formally known as parrot cichlid; no binomial nomenclature) is a hybrid thought to be between the midas and the redhead cichlid, although the true parent species has not been confirmed by breeders. The fish was first bred in Taiwan around 1986.[1][2] Blood parrots should not be confused with other parrot cichlids or salt water parrotfish (family Scaridae).[3] Natural colors of the fish are red, yellow, and grey: other colors are injected by breeders).
