Stunning, what do you feed them on?Colours are lovely.
I bet they'll be happy in their new tank

thanks mate, nice to know someone appreciates them!

feeding is a mix of (in no particular order)

- prawns, chopped up
- frozen bloodworm, mysis, krill
- Hikari Carnivore Pellets, meant for the Rope Fish but the Parrots always get a few!
- Hikari Cichlid Staple Diet Pellets

I put bits of courgette in for the Bristlenose and the parrots will nibble, but really they are not that interested, i do offer some veggy based foods but they generally dont go for it

My big parrot will half jump out of water to snatch the prawn if i dangle it lol

GORGEOUS! I love the look of those crowded parrot tanks (not the packed, packed ones like in Chinese fish stores). Parrots deffinately look best en masse. Great aquascaping job, the driftwood looks fantastic!
