There's a thread thats pinned in this form that you could read up on. I believe Chrisplosion wrote the care guide. Blood parrots aggression varies but because of their deformed mouths they hardly do much damage. I'd ditch the goldfish though.
They're not really aggressive at all actually in my opinion. Then again, I've owned numerous Dovii, Red Devil, FH, etc. Right now I have 4 blood parrots in with my FH and so far so good.
They can be low to very aggressive. One female KK I had, drew blood on more than one occasion. They may bully the oscar but may not. They tend to get on with oscars as oscars are generally quite placid.
