Beautiful tank and fish. Have the parrots spawned for you yet?

And what's the music? I'm diggin' it.

Thanks. They bred regularly for the previous owner (Alex), but haven't done so since I got them three and half months ago.... Alex had them alone in a 120, so I guess they don't like to do it with other fish around.

Not sure what the music is....a random swap :D
 
they prolly are shy around everyone else :D my sevs haven't spawned since going in the 125g with everyone else around
 
cool i hope they spawn for u peathenster. :D

Well I kinda like the way they are. There will be some major chaos if they decide to breed...
 
i think that is a rare thing to not want the psittacus to breed. i have heard they are real late bloomers and not easily bred. you really think they would make the tank chaotic if they were to spawn? Ive never really looked into thier spawning behavior since I only plan to keep a single. the tank looks awesome btw, its really come along and looks great with all of the different species.

Well I know what they are capable of.... I got bitten a couple of times by the male when I was hand feeding him - boy did he leave a bloody mark!

Yeah, the male could definately go crazy if they bred. Your tank is long enough that you should be OK though. If you are luckly they will spawn in a corner and only gaurd about 4ft of the tank. If they spawn in the middle you might have some issues. But that is a big tank.
