This is what I was referring to, Gasha. I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. Thanks, Ceej31. When he said, "4ft." it through me off. I was pretty sure that they didn't get that big. You have no excuses now, Gasha;)
 
do you guys think a true parrot would get destroyed? are they very common?
gruff if i can find a Petenia splendida in the green variant i might do that....

also just seen some jurupari.. those guys seem like they can have some nice colours...
doesn't seem aggressive though...
 
I don't know much about True Parrots (Hoplarchus Psittacus) other than what I have read from a few threads here. They seem to be able to hold their own against most fish of their temperment. I don't know how one would work with a Tex of your temperment and size.
 
just got off the phone with my dealer... lol that don't sound right... he said the true parrots arn't really in season but he'll look... he said a 6" would be about 40... he also said they can hold their own pretty good, but it's a chance with the texas. can only find the Petenia splendidain that pale orange ugly colour...gonna keep looking for a big green type... don't know if it was typo some guy was sellin a 17" thats pretty big with a mouth like that...lol
