After arriving home and placing them into the tank I started researching
them. I am having a very hard time finding information on this type of
fish.
I am however finding a lot of postings against these "hybrids".

So I guess I'm asking . . . did I make a bad decision in buying these
fish?

My personal opinion.. no. (others may disagree..) I have four of them. Two
are Jellybeans (didn't know about the dying when I bought them), and the
other two are true-color parrots. As juveniles, parrots are very dark;
their
body is a dark gray/brown with silver-ish tiger stripes and they have an
iridescent blue/green mark near the tail. One of them still has that
coloring but the other is about half dark and half pinkish. I've posted a
good site for info before but don't have it handy now..
