Hi guys

can anyone help with this::

my female parrot seems to sit near enough upside down when she is still?? i have heard parrots have swim bladder problems could this be the cause?? also i have had her for 3 years and when in another tank she laid eggs regular yet since moving tanks (6month) she hasnt but the area around her egg tube looks strange she seems to dart around quite alot aswell trying to jump tank at the moment, i joke with my wife that she has gone crazy!! when feeding time comes she swims normally and feeds as usual and doesnt seem in any pain & she is the dominant of the tank, just wondering if any of you guys have seen this before & is there anything i can do to help

Thanks

Feed her the innards of peas for every meal for a week or so.

It does the same thing for humans. It adds FIBER, which aids in digestion. Try taking a pic so we can tell what is wrong with it.

Peas are good for your parrot fishes digestive system. It sometimes helps/cures swim bladder problems. It could just be your fishes genetics after all they are mutants and definitely not the healthiest fish.

They are not mutants, they are super fish. its like in that old kid show Power Rangers. When all the zords combine they make the super megazord. So when you combine a bunch of fish you get the super megafish.
