Why would you keep a parrot with a flowerhorn? Flowerhorns get crazy agressive when they start maturing. They almost need their own tank. Luckily parrots are easy to find. Sorry for the loss. Keep parrots with geos severums or acaras. Keep flowerhorn by themselves or some tought take no prisoners centrals in a large tank.
 
Sorry for your loss! In the future I would think strongly about keeping the flowerhorn by himself!

Id be worried about the oscar being next oscars can be known to pick on fish but as far as being picked on they can easily get beat up by another fish. There better at picking on fish when they know they can get away with it not so much when it comes to sticking up for themselves.
 
That's why I finally took my Carpintis Escondido out of my Flowerhorn's tank. I used to think the Carpintis was fast enough to stay away from the FH. Right up until the FH torn his gill almost off. FH's need to be kept alone for their own safety (hurting themselves chasing other fish) and for the safety of other fish. Great fish with awesome personalities but you have to be prepared for them.
 
Sorry to hear
