Yes i had 10 parrots with my oscar, my oscar had attitude aswell but the parrots are more than capable of looking after themselves especially in numbers.

For what its worth (and that aint much lol) my thoughts here

1. i have seen so many tanks with oscars and parrots in, and nobody seems to have any bother. It seems to be a classic combination (i call them the ugly tanks lol) but thats just my taste in fish, fair play to those who like them, it would be boring if we all liked the same fish right?

2. Love your tank pic with the bog wood and white gravel (my kinda taste) Keith

3. Bruce, not judging, coz if you keep your water 100% quality then maybe its ok BUT you seem to have a heck of a lot INCHES of fish there for that size tank!!! Although i guess it also depends on the filtration you got. I also notice you have not got any decor or hiding places, do parrots mind being out in the open all the time? I only kept one of them and it loved its terrocota pot!!!

Yeah all the time, today my friend who is setting up his first tropical tank came to my house to have a look at my tanks and asked me if they are goldfish. also they have paired off and dug up all my gravel and laid eggs at both end of the tank. And in my main tank my silver dollars have spawned as well.
