Good luck! clapping


The thing with blood parrots I found out is this... their mouths are not equiped to clean out the bad eggs like my KKP does.

You will have to do this if there is to many bad eggs or risk the chance of them all fuzzing over.

Also there will be more fry with Parrot mouth and possibly more cullable defects.

Yes, true, some KKP can/will have a BP head and mouth and therefore some will say its a BP. When crossing a BP with a Midas this is what happens.


Myself, I now define a KKP by the quality rather than the size.... hope you don`t mind lil so I will post pics of a KKP and KKP with BP head and mouth for information purposes...

okay so i got home from work at i see eggs in the pot. the female seems to be fanning the eggs. does this mean the male already fertilzed the eggs? the male is just chilling and eating his food but the female keeps hovering over the eggs and fanning them. im just worried the male didnt do his thing cause i wasnt home to see it

KKPs color change when she's in heat or not. It fluctuates so much from deep red to blotchy like the way it is right now. I think that's why people say kamfas are so fragile with their colors, when in reality, that's just the way their genes work.

well i think the male fertalized the eggs cause he is taking turns with the kkp to fan the eggs. also when i put my face close to the tank to get a good look at the eggs, he starts ramming at the tank at my face. keeping my fingers crossed! man this is so exciting.
