How Awful!

Just out of curiosity, can parrots be kept sucsessfuly with goldfish? The tank in the picture has a couple of shubinkins in with them.

No.. Not that i know of. I would say that the goldfish wouldnt last in the warm waters your parrot needs, or vise versa.

Goldfish do fine in tropical conditions although the parrots would probably bully them.

Do parrots start out a different color?

I remember when I originally bought my parrot he was yellow. Not bright yellow, just yellow, with a black streak down his side. He's completely orange now. He wasn't dyed was he? I'm just afraid I had bought a dyed fish without my knowledge, and the dye faded over time.

If your parrot started out yellow and faded to ornage then yes he would have been dyed.

Wow, I would've never guessed that Petsmart sold dyed fish, I've never seen any there before.

I'm sure this sounds horribly racist, but I honestly can't see those fish having a market outside of Asia.

I saw some in a shop in Scotland, apparently some accidentally got into the uk but most were destroyed.

Wait... wouldn't they be a different color when they were small? I mean, I got mine when he was about 1 in - 2 in long. He's about 6 in long now.
