unlikely that these two would produce viable eggs. The Parrot fish is a man-made
hybrid so it may have some Severum somewhere in it's genes, but I doubt that it
is close enough genetically to be able to breed with a pure Severum. It's not
unusual for two Cichlids of differing species to form a 'pair', in fact it
happened to me not long back, but unless they are quite closely related they
will not produce any young. However should the species be quite close then they
will produce hybrids. As for the aggression, that it quite usual with Cichlids,
just keep an eye on it and should one fish start to suffer unduly then maybe
seperate them OK.

Regards,
Steve
