Feeding

Question about feeding.

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.

Peas?

Everyone mentions peas?  What this is concept?

Thanks!

What kind of food? Fish flakes or Pellets?

Hello Iam wondering is it okay to feed my BP fish flakes? cuz he will not eat the pellets lol but loves the the cichlid fish flakes
I feed 2 times a day and is it normal for them to dance for thier food? :)

Is it normal for them to skip meals?

I am new to owning  two Blood Parrot fish. I know they like to hide and they are very shy fish, but my fish seem to be hiding for so long sometimes they don't want to come out and eat. Is this normal?

OH NO! Monsanto E, Ethoxyquin in Fish food TOO!

Blood Parrot not eating

I have had my blood parrot for around two years now and he is a great fish. Ive never had a problem with him at all.. The last few days he wont eat any of his food. Ive never had a problem with him eating food before.. in fact he seemed to really enjoy eating.. I usually feed him some cichlid pellets and occasionaly freeze dried brine shrimp kinda like a treat. He is the only fish in his tank. Other than not eating he seems fine.. Hes swiming and following my finger and things hes always done.. I dont know what to do.. im worried about him.. Any one have any ideas or thoughts?

I think my poor Rosie is starving!

Whenever I feed my Blood Parrot, Rosemary, the food just comes right back out of her gills. I've tried her on a number of different cichlid pellets but she can't seem to actually eat any of it. The problem is getting serious because now I not only have a starving fish but the discarded food is really making my tank disgusting. I've got some kind of stringy white fungus growing everywhere now. I've done numerous water changes to get rid of it but it just keeps coming back because of the food in the water.

Special Dinner Treat...would this be ok?

Can i feed them Cooked chicken for a 1 time change in food?  would that be ok for them?

Blood Parrot feeding problems

My BP seems to have trouble feeding.  He doesn't seem to see the food when it is right in front of him.  I am worried abut him getting enough to eat.  Are there any feeding problems with the type of fish that I don't know about?

How often shpuld I feed two small BP ?

Im new here and just got two small BP at my aquirium store. They told me not to over feed them.  They told me to feed them blood red
pellets once a day but Im not sure how much. The two fish are about the size of a oblong silver dollar. Any advise will help. Thanks
