Getting Blood Parrot A Friend?

[Bradley Moles]

My blood parrot has been fairly aggressive and territorial and I want to get him a friend. How will I know if they will be friends or enemies, and how will I prevent them from pairing up and bullying their tank mates? (I assume mine is a male)

You don't.

 

[Bradley Moles]

You don't.

That’s what I was afraid of, any suggestion of getting one more female or how I should keep the numbers?

Tank size and stocking?

EDIT: And does he have a functional mouth?

Rehoming a few other fish but it is a 125 that will have another male electric blue acara and 2 male electric blue rams, the rest are all bottom feeders. His mouth does not function.

I have my BP with a green terror, jack Dempsey, convict, and a Texas cichlid. The Texas runs the show in my tank because he’s a little bit bigger than everyone but the JD will probably overpower him later. The Texas chases everyone except for my BP. I don’t know why. But he’s pretty scared of him. So I guess it’s a hit or miss?
