Parrot fish are omnivorous animals and eat almost everything. Raisers can feed more parrot fish to eat shrimp, water lice, mealworms, earthworms, artificial feed and other foods. Astaxanthin in shrimp can enhance the color of parrot fish, and eating more shrimp is conducive to the health of parrot fish. In addition, the appetite of parrot fish is particularly large, it is recommended that farmers feed regularly and quantitatively every day, first feed parrot fish to eat half full, and then feed shrimp, water lice, mealworms, earthworms and other food.
