Damn that would mean more gadgets for a bigger tank. The items for my 40 are good enough for a 60. heater, filter, etc. Is a 60 fine though for a fh syno and a blood parrot

Depends on how big he get and how you feed and maintain, my big guy is with his mate onlyn in a 90, 1 fx5 and it still gets dirty pretty quick, i do weekly water changes and was thinking about putting in a bigger tank cause he is still growing

In the long run no, the flowerhorn is gonna own that tank. If you really want to keep fish with him its gonna need much a larger tank than 60, might work while its young but when it gets larger things will change.

Should be ok, personally i would sex the fh first and go with opposite sex parrot. Some fh wont mix after being alone but most of all of mine do well with other fish, i have a female kamfa and male fh x carpentis ( pearl or texas) paired off together in a large cichlid community tank and they dont bother anyone as long as the other fish stay outta there small piece of real estate. All fh are different in my expierience if you add a smaller fh to a tank with bigger fish then they dont get aggressive, but also the fh could remain dark in color, all depends on the fish.

This is the male fh x the female a red texas male and a zonatus, all nasty fish but the all get along, it may not last forever but they have all been together since 1" and range in size 7"+++
