I hav a young parrotfish, and he lives well together with 3 angles, 3 corcys 2 and my other fish.

He is not looking at all to the other fish.

zoe, elwellj

Could I respectfully suggest you research your subject before posting advise

Labs & Parrots should not be kept together, as you would have found out if you had checked it out first.
If you had any concern as to the well being and requirements of both species you would not keep them together.
OK it may work temporarily but it doesnt make it right for the fish.

"i would think they would be alright with most fish besides flahy tetras an stuff"

People come on here for sound advise and not personal thoughts, unless this is based on sound & proven experience

Parrots should be kept with central american cichlids, although they are hybrids they are probably a result of breeding between these type of fish. They show a certain amount of aggression and need to be kept with large robust fish that can stick up foe themselves.
