Mini parrot fish can eat shrimp, shrimp skin, red nematodes, water fleas, mealworms, earthworms and other live baits, as well as some synthetic pellet feed and tablet feed. Mini parrot fish have a weak stomach, so it's best to sterilize them before feeding live bait. When feeding artificial feed, it is better not to feed too much at one time, because the feed will swell when it meets water, causing them to eat too much and suffer from indigestion.
