Description
It appears you’re asking about the King Kong Parrot, a freshwater fish known for its vibrant red coloration and distinctive appearance, not a parrot bird.
Key characteristics of the Red King Kong Parrot:
Vibrant Coloration: A deep, rich red-orange hue that intensifies as it matures.
Body Shape: Round, stocky body with a pronounced hump on the head (nuchal hump).
Mouth Shape: Beak-like mouth due to hybridization.
Size: Can grow up to 12 inches or more.
Temperament: Generally peaceful but can be territorial, especially during breeding.
Origin and Background:
A man-made hybrid created by breeding different cichlid species.
The “King Kong” variety is larger and more pronounced than standard Blood Parrot Fish.
Care:
Tank Size: Requires a minimum tank size of 75 gallons, with larger tanks recommended for housing multiple fish.
Water Conditions: Thrives in slightly acidic to neutral pH levels (6.5-7.5) and a temperature range of 75-82°F.
Diet: An omnivore that does well with high-quality pellets and flakes, supplemented with live or frozen food options.
Note: It’s important to be aware that the hybridization process used to create Blood Parrot Fish, and subsequently King Kong Parrots, has generated ethical debates within the aquarium hobby.
