FishMates for a pink convict and a parrot fish!!

[Christopha]

hey i have a 20 gl tank. I have currently a pink convict, a parrot fish (dyed a fading blue), and a spotted cat fish. I have had an oscar but he got sick and they killed him... and i have had a fish im nto sure what it was. I was a long thing shiny red tailed fish with light yellow fins... name might sound somehting like Chelsea.. aha not sure. He was good witht hem for many month and recently they turned on him and eventaully got his eye and put in in bad shape.. eventually dying. The parrot and the convict get along alright and hold their own again each other. the cat fish is my favorite hes cool and hang out no problem. What other fish can i get in there that will be able to also hold its own and looks good? open to any and all suggestions....

Hi, i am not an expert on fish! But i have to large parrots and they got on very well with clown loaches and similar cat fish, they don't seem to bother them at all and always get out there way when eating! The bigger loaches the better really! Also my angels don't have any problems with parrots as they are large. The only issue is introducing new fish into a parrot territory! The only other idea is another parrot?? olly

I hate to tell you but that tank is way to small. Most parrots get anywhere from 6"-8". And also clown loaches can get around a foot, so make sure you have a big enough tank for them =].


EDITorry I didn't realise how old this thread is lol.
