Answer 1

I presume you mean the hybrid Blood Parrot Cichlids? And undyed ones?

Healthy BP's should grow to 8" and live 6-10 years or so. This is of course depending on tank size etc. For 3 of these you're looking at at least 65 US gallons, fully mature and well filtered at optimum temperature.

Answer 2

The average lifespan is 10 years

Answer 3
