Parrots are not like fish that you can feed and enjoy as ornaments.

Just to note, fish aren't ornaments either! We had 2 goldfish (victor and betty, named after the budgies on worldsfunniestbudgie.com) but they died recently. It wasnt like breaking a tiki mug, it was very very sad. They had real personalities, those 2 fish! Sadly something went wrong - We had been having problems with couldy water in the goldfish bowl, even with frequent changes, so Jason and I decided to give them pure bottled water one time. The next morning they were dead. A search of the web found many sites that advocated bottled water for fish, and others that advised against it. I still don't know which is best, but let me say, don't put Aquafina in your fishtank, we learned the hard way.
