dont take this the wrong way but parrot fish are the one fish i cant stand

they are man made rubbish

they are no better than a fancy tropical goldfish

their are sooooo many nice fish to pick why do people need this ugly fish that can swim properly and most of them cant even close their mouths

ban them

i know about your hatred for Parrots T1, but my Parrots were actually made in Germany so are an advanced model.

As you can imagine after losing two of my fish i'm not really in the mood to read your opinions on hybrid fish, please go and piss someone else off.

sory george to hear they never made it !

sounds like they both died of the same thing. let us know what the fish shop said?

whats the bigest a parrot can get to ? at 10 inches could it have been a very old fish?

it a shame you lost fish

but the nasty parrots i have seen with big growths on their heads swim funny like a wobbly fantail goldfish

they are no better than dyed fish if people didnt buy them the shops wouldnt sell them

any desent shop WONT sell them anyway

they are ok for kids who just want the cute funny looking fish but thats it

ban them

rant over

the only explanation the lfs came up with was they came out of the tank at the o2 centre, the great big one thats the size of a living room, too stressed in a small tank. i guess any tank is small compared to this.
