A few weeks ago I got a couple of wildcaught Hoplarchus psittacus, true parrot fish. These guys are 3-4" and are eating like pigs. Here are a couple of pics of them and a couple of tankmates:

The tank is 180g Heavily planted, with the parrots, a colony of 7 geo. altifrons, about 5-6 angelfish, about 6 German rams, and a few dithers / small catfish (corydoras).
