Overview
The True Parrot Cichlid, scientifically known as Hoplarchus Psittacus, is a vibrant and unique freshwater fish that adds a splash of color and character to any aquarium. This species, reaching up to 5cm in juvenile size, is renowned for its striking greenish-blue body and vivid red eyes, mimicking the appearance of a parrot. Perfect for aquarists seeking an exotic addition to their tank, the True Parrot Cichlid thrives in a well-maintained environment that mimics its natural habitat.
Origin
Native to the Amazon Basin in South America, the True Parrot Cichlid is found in slow-moving rivers and floodplain areas. This fish prefers environments with plenty of cover and vegetation, replicating these conditions in the home aquarium is essential for their wellbeing.
Feeding
The True Parrot Cichlid is omnivorous with a preference for a varied diet that includes both plant-based and meaty foods. A mix of high-quality cichlid pellets, frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp and bloodworms, and vegetable matter will ensure a balanced diet that promotes vibrant coloration and healthy growth.
Tank Mates
Being relatively peaceful for a cichlid, the True Parrot Cichlid can coexist with a variety of tank mates. Ideal companions include similarly sized and tempered South American cichlids, larger tetras, and catfish. Avoid overly aggressive species or much smaller fish that could be seen as prey.
Aggression
While the True Parrot Cichlid is generally more peaceful than other cichlids, it can show territorial behavior, especially during breeding. Providing ample space, hiding spots, and visual barriers in the aquarium can help minimize aggression.
Experience Level
The True Parrot Cichlid is suitable for intermediate to advanced aquarists. Keeping this species requires attention to water quality, diet, and tank setup to replicate their natural habitat and minimize stress.
Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 26-30°C (79-86°F)
  • pH: 6.5-7.5
  • Hardness: 5-15 dGH
Maintaining stable water conditions within these parameters is crucial for the health and wellbeing of the True Parrot Cichlid. Regular water changes, filtration, and monitoring of water chemistry are essential practices for any aquarist looking to keep this stunning species.

Soothing, refreshing, and effective for most uses
I found this sunscreen back when it was still reasonable priced ($10 for a bottle this size) and am now completely 100% addicted as the price continues to rise. Sigh. I don't use this anywhere but my face and neck. Putting this on my face makes me go "ahhhhh". I break out easily, burn easily, and haaaate the feeling of sunscreen. Previously, I used Neutrogena 45 or 55+ ultra-sheer dry touch, and I still use that sometimes when I expect more intense exposure, but the Coola cucumber just feels so much better. I don't actually know if I would burn in cases where I still use my other 45+ sunscreen since I haven't taken the chance. I use Coola for 30-45 minute pool sessions, and hikes between 30-90 minutes. I haven't trusted it for things like skiing, 3 hour hikes, or boating where you get intense sun and a lot of moisture exposure. Buy if you want a lightweight, refreshing face sunscreen for walks in the sun, lounging poolside, or mild-moderate hikes.

Organic Sunscreen with an Air-Brushed Finish
I've been using the Coola Organic sunscreen on my face for about 5 years now. I love that it protects my skin without dangerous chemicals. The product has virtually no scent and has a pleasant creamy, but not greasy, texture. An additional perk is that it creates an instant "air-brushed" looking finish to my skin. Note: I have found that you have to shake the tube (especially when new) or else the product emerges a bit watery at first. I've always used the non-tinted formula so I can't comment on how the tinted formula works. Also, the "cooling" aspect of the product seems more of hype than reality. But, over all, this is an excellent sunscreen.

Worked well near the equator
Style: SPF 50
I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.
