Yea, your cool. Lets see how much suffering I can put my fish through before they die. I mean, I'm not feeling it so why not right. Have you ever heard of homeostasis?

Better yet, I'll take them out of the tank altogether and they can play in the garden with the ducks.

I don't understand why people say things like that. If you think it's bad to own blood parrots, then you must also believe that people shouldn't own dogs or cats. When you stop and think about it, dogs and cats were hybridized for our amusement, and a dog or cat wouldn't live as long in the wild, so would you say that it's wrong to own them?fugupuff;3678542; said:parrots are man made to begin with, hybridized for our amusement.
you cannot compare tank conditions to nature, which God created! for example fish die due to season changes yearly in the amazon, but in fish tanks they can live much longer, which by keeping them, you're extending their life, but not what's natural.
no matter how large of a fish tank you have, it cannot compare it to a size of a small lake in the middle of the jungle. so one parrot or 10 parrot, or even a 100 parrot, is not yours, mine or anybody's business.
and you like puffers, which most of all you've not bred, and probably will never be able to breed, which they normally would in the wild. so i'm sure that's not what God or nature inteneded, nor were the parrots, nor were fish meant to be kept in glass boxes.
