Those greyish small blood parrots (going for $1 @ nanyang if i remember correctly) are baby blood parrots. I bought 3 of them around 2 to 3 years back. They grow up and will slowly turn orange. Really cool to see how they grow up and the color changes. Really like your tank and will be following the updates! I visit Nanyang quite frequently and hopefully will see you around.
Wow i didnt know they were completely grey when they are small! And thank you! Do hola at me if you see me around, i visit once in awhile (because of distance).
Hello can you tell me please I have a Jack Demsey blue boy 4 years old four days ago he turned black and two days ago he started swim weird not that active he eats good water is fine I lost a piece can't sleep at night I don't know how to help him
I was lucky enough to get a jellybean convict recently. They called them Snow White convict parrots at my local store. It doesn’t bother my tiger barbs but it’s very aggressive towards my convict cichlid which is a little smaller. Your videos have been super helpful in setting up my community aquarium for my turtle!
Great videos, found your channel a week ago. Those parrots look like a mix with a flowerhorn with that pattern. For a fish keeper those stores u have available are a dream
Beautiful fishes. My JD looks very similar, cant wait to see how color improves. Those blue ones were very tempting but I seen some other fish keepers mention issues with longevity. Looks like you can feed everyone at once. Definitely curious to see how things go as the turtle gets bigger. That is a lot of fish surviving with a turtle, perfect harmony.
Yeah i feel you - i cant wait for mine to grow and color up! And yeah i heard that about the eletric blues too, and that they are less aggressive. Feeding this tank is such a joy everyone goes nuts! Im rly curious to see how things go too i rly want to upgrade my tank size down the road
After a fews months of growth months, the Jack Dempsey is going to turn your tank into a crime scene. I saw at least one Danio and a school of Tiger Barbs that will not last once the Jack Dempsey’s mouth is large enough. The Parrots and the Jelly Bean will not be eaten, but the Jack will probably assert dominance over them-especially if it is a male. He may kill them. Cichlids have mildly diverse personalities, so yours may allows the other to live. But Jack Dempseys were named after a boxer for a reason. They are generally aggressive.
Check the date, it's been 2 years. Jack dempsey didnt kill nobody. Danios would've been the only casualty (and I'm fine with that, they were feeders anyway) but were shifted out.
Snow fits so well with the names im thinking of for my 2 blood parrots! Definitely considering this. Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah this fish is really nice and cute haha
It will be cool if you set up a nano planted tank for the 1000 subscriber special and could you do a tour of that aquarium in changi it looks so cool🐟🐠
how in the world does the turtle not eat the little fish? The white jellybean convict is beautiful the same colors as a platinum angel. I have a blue and black striped jellybean convict he's really cute.
If your a fish-nut & love the aquarium fishkeeping hobby, Singapore is paradise. They're the largest worldwide exporter of fresh & saltwater tropical fish! The only two countries that even come close are Japan at #2 and the Czech Republic at #3. Enjoyed the video. One day I've got to come visit Singapore & tour all the aqua stores.
My pink convict not growing gave one to a friend and its growing really fast but his tank is always messy.any advice on how to grow them in my clean tank
I would think its something else. Water parameter, feeding frequency/amount/food, tankmates etc. In general for a fish to grow fast, feed well, feed often. Feed foods that are complete. Convicts are omnivores so they need omnivore pellets. Make sure they are not stressed. They have places to hide and retreat. No tank mate that is bullying him. The list goes on but I hope some of what I name would've hit the culprit of the slow growth.
I usually do hour long medicated dips. Never had an issue thus far. Might just be luck or it might actually be sufficient in most cases. Time will tell i guess.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll have tk consider because I'm personally not the best person when it comes to quarantining (I know the "right" way, im sometimes too impatient). Maybe I'll share the "right" way and my method :)
Hey Corydoras Gallery, thank you for sharing. This wasn't a treatment (they are not diagnosed with anything), it was a concentrated 1 hour dip. Disclaimer before I get slaughtered by ppl, i admit its not ideal and patience is something this hobby is teaching me slowly but surely. That said, i do quarantine much longer when i buy from shops im not familiar with or dont trust. As for treatment (not quarantine) durations, i think its also dependent on what we are treating as well (dependent on life cycle).
I would love to set up many many more tanks! However space is an issue and I'll need to convince my family. And ill love to post more videos too, i just have too much on my plate (you know, life) to keep up with the editing. Consistency and sustainability is key for me. I want to spend more time enjoying and improving my editing process and have time to sit and enjoy my tank too ;)
I did medicated dips instead of a quarantine. About an hour in praziquentel, seachem paraguard and salt. Not the most ideal, I only do this with fishes bought from stores I trust. Never had an issue before. If im buying drom stores i dont trust i quarantine up to a week. Still not the most ideal but I'm a little impatient and that has worked out for me so far as well. Hope this helps :)
Unfortunately i had to remove the green terror because it was constantly being nipped at by Tom. And im not sure why but i lost it in the quarantine tank a few days later i suspect there was an ammonia spike despite cycling the tank, i fed more the night prior.
Nice fish
Nice looking parrots
Thank you :)

Jack Dempsey with tiger, barbs, that’s new. When he gets older, I don’t expect there to be any tiger, barbs. 😂
Hello can you tell me please I have a Jack Demsey blue boy 4 years old four days ago he turned black and two days ago he started swim weird not that active he eats good water is fine I lost a piece can't sleep at night I don't know how to help him
Those babies look like regular parrot cichlids which are the ones you see in the wild but regulars dont have the humps so i don't know.

The white fish is a beauty! new here!
Yes it is. Welcome to the family! :)
I believe you should alaways buy 2 of a breed no one live alone
Handsome man nice body no shirt next time
What is rare ? Because I have a lot of both
It'll be just fine....until it isn't
Will you sell any of your fish??
How are they doing today?
Nice tiger Barb's 🛸
Great videos, found your channel a week ago. Those parrots look like a mix with a flowerhorn with that pattern. For a fish keeper those stores u have available are a dream
Turns out its most likely a short bodied pink convict. And yeah, tons of great aquariums here in Singapore. I've barely scratched the surface 🤣
Take off your shirt

@@SGBeardedAquarist hey bro!! Love your tank!! Are you still uploading vids? Your tank is amazing and inspiring! Have a good one!
Name the fish Snow ❄️ (coz it’s white 😃)
Really nice fish bro.
Snow fits so well with the names im thinking of for my 2 blood parrots! Definitely considering this. Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah this fish is really nice and cute haha
Kool set up!!
Subbed bruv.
It will be cool if you set up a nano planted tank for the 1000 subscriber special and could you do a tour of that aquarium in changi it looks so cool🐟🐠
Nano planted might be a possibility since it wouldnt take up too much space. Whats your fav nano fish?
@@SGBeardedAquarist pea puffers!!!
Ooooo i always wanted puffers!
So cute
how in the world does the turtle not eat the little fish? The white jellybean convict is beautiful the same colors as a platinum angel. I have a blue and black striped jellybean convict he's really cute.
Aweosme tanks and work man, keep it up! We all support you and hope your channel grows astronomically!
Thank you so much for the encouragement :)
SG Bearded Aquarist YAY KEEP UP YOUR AWESOME STUFF :DDDDDD
Awesome fish!
Thank you! I'm a follower of your videos. Watched your jack dempsey videos when deciding if i should i get one :)
Watch my video. You can see more platinum parrot and blue polar convict parrot. About you jack damsey, watch carefully it will be very aggressive.

You gotta quarantine a new fish for a minimum of two week because that’s how long it takes for most diseases to show up and properly get rid of
The black parrot fish that you're refering to is an hybrid of flowerhorn and parroth fish
That’s a beautiful fish! However I don’t like that turtle in there w em.
NAME IT LARRY WHITEELLLSSS
COME ON LARRY!
I really love your channel❤️🐟🌿🌱🙏✌️
looking into a Jack myself, and jellybean gets my vote for the name.
Call him ivory
I have 2 of them in my 160 gallon
i usually quarantine much longer than that. i mean doesnt quarantine take longer than that?
also how much is their electric blue jacks?
HELP! What shall we name the Jellybean Convict? Timothy aka little timmy? Jellybean? Other suggestions are welcomed!
SG Bearded Aquarist name him jelly belly! 👍🏻
What a cute name for the little guy! Will wait for all the suggestions and pick one 😁
Name him Jelly Belly like what red devil mackrel said
There is no pink convict, dude.
That also not jellybean convict.
Hybrid cichlid, dude.
Hey, dude.
Guess what, dude.
You crack me up, dude.
Anyway, consensus is its a short body pink convict. Yes, there is a pink convict. Hybrid cichlid is not a name, its description.
d Aquria everybody knows pink convicts are a thing except you d. Aquria.
Great Video LOVE your tank.
White one is a male pink convict.
Hi Daniru, its half a pink convict. Its a hybrid between the pink convict and blood parrot.
@@SGBeardedAquarist no its a pink convict but it is a short bodied one.
Did more reading up and you may be right. It seems its highly debated what they really are. Ill just refrain from conclusions i guess hahaha
My pink convict not growing gave one to a friend and its growing really fast but his tank is always messy.any advice on how to grow them in my clean tank
I would think its something else. Water parameter, feeding frequency/amount/food, tankmates etc.

The list goes on but I hope some of what I name would've hit the culprit of the slow growth.
So....no quarantine? It would be a pity when disease break out in your beautiful tank.
I usually do hour long medicated dips. Never had an issue thus far. Might just be luck or it might actually be sufficient in most cases. Time will tell i guess.
JB the Jellybean convict?
You should do a video about your process of quarantine fish before you put them in the main tank. Pleaseeee🙏
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll have tk consider because I'm personally not the best person when it comes to quarantining (I know the "right" way, im sometimes too impatient). Maybe I'll share the "right" way and my method :)
Parzigold is a treatment for 5days. How long did you treat the fish for?
Hey Corydoras Gallery, thank you for sharing. This wasn't a treatment (they are not diagnosed with anything), it was a concentrated 1 hour dip. Disclaimer before I get slaughtered by ppl, i admit its not ideal and patience is something this hobby is teaching me slowly but surely.

Nice convict fish jack demsey are aggresive they will eat the danio
Yes you are right. I'm okay with the danios being eaten, im more concerned about my tiger barbs.
Jelly bean is a pretty cool name..I like the turtle man...
Turtle's name is Tom! :)
Make a new tank for 1000 sub special and your channel is growing fast maybe if you make more videos you will reach that mark in no time!
I would love to set up many many more tanks! However space is an issue and I'll need to convince my family. And ill love to post more videos too, i just have too much on my plate (you know, life) to keep up with the editing. Consistency and sustainability is key for me. I want to spend more time enjoying and improving my editing process and have time to sit and enjoy my tank too ;)
Also, thank you following my journey! Remember your comments from when i was 40+ subs :)
I’d be careful with the jack jempsey when it gets bigger... when mine was 6 inches it killed my 6 inch full grown rainbow shark
Oh my! I thought my full grown tiger barbs were big enough... thanks for the heads up
Yeah Jack Dempsey are known to take over tanks
Love the new fish how long did you quarantine
I did medicated dips instead of a quarantine. About an hour in praziquentel, seachem paraguard and salt. Not the most ideal, I only do this with fishes bought from stores I trust. Never had an issue before.

Very nice Jellybean Cichlid Ashley! 💪
Thank you!
Man your set up is awesome!!! Hope to see more videos soon please ...

New mic is really good
Yes i love it!
Where is the green terror?
Unfortunately i had to remove the green terror because it was constantly being nipped at by Tom. And im not sure why but i lost it in the quarantine tank a few days later i suspect there was an ammonia spike despite cycling the tank, i fed more the night prior.
