Blood parrot tankmates in a 75 gallon?

I've been thinking about parrots for many months, and we are about to move into a new house where it will be possible to get a 75 gallon tank! So my blood parrots are a possibility now... (By the way, thank you Aquarist for your advice long ago about tank size!)

I'm just wondering what tank mates others have kept successfully with blood parrots that would be appropriate for a 75 gallon tank? I've done some searching in the forums, and I'm just wondering how the tank mates are working out for people.... I'm thinking maybe rainbowfish? Angelfish? Suggestions for fish that all get along with your BPs?

Good morning,

My stocking list is in my signature below. I have also kept a few of the smaller Rainbows with my Bloody Parrots years ago. They got along very well.

Please keep us posted with your progress and congrats on the new house.

I'll be interested to see what people suggest as if I ever am able to get a larger tank, blood parrots are what I want to put in it

Thanks so much, @Aquarist! You are my blood parrot guru.

I will post an update in the future when/if I finally take the plunge and go with the BPs, @, to let you know how all the fish are getting along (whatever I end up going with)!

Good morning,

Whatever tank mates you choose, just make sure they are not aggressive as Bloody Parrots cannot defend themselves like others do, due to the deformity of their mouths.
