I have 3 BP's. 2 of which have decided to shack up together for quite some time now. Lets call them Zeke&Ruth. They have been shacked up in this one particular cup. As many of you know, BP's are protective and territorial, Zeke is very protective of his Ruth and his area. Now this leaves the last BP, lets call him Titus (TT-our nickname for him). Zeke ocassionally beats the trash out of TT when he goes anywhere near his cup.
Please help!! my parrot just recover from parasite and now they start eating again. Now I saw one of them with cotton wool growing in the head. One with blacken eye. They had like air bubbles come out of their mouth. It look sticky and floating on the top of the tank.
Is it fungus or what? I change water every week but when I test the water still high in NO3 :100, GH 16, KH 15, PH 8.0, CL2 OK
Please suggest anything to help water quality and my fish to be happier...Thanks
Hello my name is Tommy, me and my father have two aquariums and love to pair are fishes after the our Parrot Cichlids.
In our 180 Gallon tank we have about 5 Parrots three are smaller and the other two are i guess full grown (not sure).
We have gathered them up Silver Dollars, Fantosas, Angel Fishes, African Cichlids, and just other fishes.

New Parrot hiding
Well I put a couple rosy reds in the tank for Oscar the tiger oscar, and I noticed that my 2 parrots Piglet and Butters chased them down and Piglet ate one. How often should I give them feeders (rosy red/guppies/goldfish), same question for Oscar if anyone knows.
I AM NEW TO PARROTS THOUGH I HAVE HAD OTHER CICHILDS IN MY AQUARIUMS SINCE I WAS A SCHOOLBOY [I AM 58]. I AM A SRI LANKAN AND LIVE IN MYANMAR - YANGON. I JUST STARTED MY PARROT TANK WITH 9 GUYS [GALS?]. I HAVE BROUGHT IN TWO FLOWER HORNS AND THEY WILL GO INTO THE LAST SECTION OF MY 6 FT TANK DIVIDED BY A 1 FT AREA WITH PLANTS. I WILL POST THE PICTURES ONCE THE TANK IS COMPLETED

Hi I just came back from a weekend skiing and everything seemed ok at first until I got a good look at one of my fish ("The Andrew fish") - he's got a bunch of white stuff near the eyes, on the fins and other places. He was pretty tattered when I got him because he fights over a female in the tank so his fins never really looked that great but now I feel like he has some kind of fungas or something - does anyone know what this is?
I just took some photos (which were hard to take but I did the best I could).
