The breeding of parrot fish is generally the hybridization of female fish and other species of fish to lay eggs. In order to achieve a higher success rate of breeding, parent fish with good genes must be selected. Female parrot fish and male Luohan fish or red devil fish can be fertilized to lay eggs. During reproduction, the male discharges sperm first, and then the female lays eggs in the middle of the sperm, so that some of the eggs are fertilized. After maintaining the water temperature, the fertilized eggs will slowly hatch into small fish.
