How do you make fertile blood parrot Cichlids?

To breed fertile blood parrot cichlids, start by ensuring you have a healthy male and female pair. Provide a spacious tank with hiding spots and a breeding substrate, like flat rocks or spawning mats. Maintain optimal water conditions with stable pH and temperature (around 75-80°F). Once the female lays eggs, the male will fertilize them, and you should monitor the tank closely to ensure the fry are properly cared for.
