It looks nice but how big is it? It looks overstocked.

55 gallon it has parrots in it

Way too many parrots. You should try to see if you can rehome some or take them back. Nice tank though.
Is that hairgrass in the background?
Isn't that a green severum also?

Pretty sure that's a green severum. Check this picture out. Scroll down and click the severum picture.

And I'm pretty sure parrots need bigger than a 30 gallon tank. I think it's 55 gallon min.

I feel so sorry for those fish! You should give 9 or 10 back to a decent pet store (not Wal-Mart) and maybe even the Algae eaters, and just keep 1-2 Parrots and the 2 Severum. Are these Parrots, Blood, Jelly bean or King-Kong Parrot fish? How long had he had the tank?


Haha, I didn't notice randallhart just pretty much said the same thing

I hope you can successfully find a suitable home for them all. Thats's a lot of parrots.
But what kind of algae eaters? Chinese, False. They still become very aggressive at their adult size.

 

[untamedheart3232]
