well the most i paid for one of them is about £15, most of them i was quite lucky and got in the £8-£10 range
If someone offered me a £100 for the 6" i'd say no honestly.
My big one loves water changes, he's always at the front waiting for the water to be tipped in from the buckets whilst all the other fish are nervously lurking around the back of the tank!
I do 40% water changes a week and feed them a very varied diet of all the "alleged" best foods really, like hikari, thawed prawns, other frozen stuff and also some mussell but it gets a bit messy. The tank is also over-filtered with Eheims big-time.
They will nibble on courgette but if i put a block of it in and weigh it down the big one just guards it from all the other parrots like he's guarding eggs lol, he will let the Bristlenose eat it and suck on it though. I am going to try and get a video clip of him guarding the courgette from 7 other parrots, makes me giggle everytime!
I scrape bits of courgette off now and drop it in and they will eat it, especially if they havent eaten for over 24 hrs.
