I have 3 blood parrots that range from 3-4 inches in length and i'm not quite sure what to feed them. I've had them for about a year when they were 1/2 inch. Since then they have grown but when i drop food in they seem to just nudge it. I've tried floating and sinking cichlid gold, bloodworms, and earthworms. Anyone have some ideas?
 
I also have 2 Blood parrots around that size. I feed them Sinking Cichlid Gold as well but make sure it's the mini pellet that's only 3.0mm- 3.4mm. I do feed bloodworms that they seem to love, and I also recommend Brine Shrimp in the cubes(Not Frozen) as my Blood Parrots really like it and they can eat it without much effort because it decomposes once it hits the water!

Great Thank you! I will try those
 
Northfin, new life spectrum, hikari all make quality foods. Just get any and stick to it. Blood worms, earth worms are not so good nutrition wise and might transfer parasite, so keep it limited.
