Parrot fish should be fed food once or twice a day, and the specific feeding frequency and feeding amount can be determined according to their growth stage. If it is a parrot fish in its infancy, you can choose to feed it twice a day, and the amount of each feed can be eaten within 5-10 minutes. Because parrot fish have a high demand for food in their infancy, breeders should feed them more frequently. When they are adults, the frequency of feeding can be reduced, and it is ok to feed them once a day. If the water temperature is low or their eating state is not good, they can also choose to feed once every 1-2 days.

1. Animal feed: Parrot fish is omnivorous fish, and its food requirements are not high. However, they prefer animal feed, and breeders can feed them some good-year shrimp, red worms, yellow mealworms, bread worms, water fleas, water lice, earthworms and other foods, as well as lean meat and animal viscera. These foods can ensure their adequate nutrition and accelerate their growth and development.

2. Synthetic feed: If breeders don't have enough time, they can choose to feed some synthetic feed. These feeds are made according to the habits of fish, which can provide them with a comprehensive impact. However, their nutritional content is not very high. If they are fed to parrot fish in their infancy, they need to be matched with some animal feed.
