Hey, I have a pair of Yellow Parrot Cichlids, and now the biggest of the two has taken over the one third of my 55gal. tank. Which has a Red Tiger Oscar, Pacu, Piranha, and some other Cichlids. What is she up too, and what should I be watching for, she chases everyone away, but the BIG Oscar. nickersyaaa@yahoo.com

You can try....

on the last one you have to go to forums to get into it.
BTW, I am sure you are aware of this but the pacu, oscar, and pirahna are not appropriate for your tank (with regards to tank size and compatability). What other cichlids do you have in this tank? As far as the parrot cichlid taking over one third of the tank, it could be that she is ready to lay eggs.....or it could be a male starting to claim a territory. As far as I know parrots are not sexually dimorphic (I could be wrong on that though ;) ). I hope you can sort things out with this tank. Good luck!
Dave~ why would you send her to a brackish forum? These are not brackish water fish.....

Thank you for the iinfo. all of these fish have been together in this tank for almost a year they all seem VERY HAPPY with each other. I have had all of them since birth.
