Pea size bubble where egg tube use to be

Wed, 01/23/2013 - 01:55 — Dewie

Hello all,

I believe my BP Dewie is in trouble.   Almost three weeks ago Dewie started to rearange the substrate in the tank and act as if it was going to lay eggs soon.  I have seen this behavior before and thought nothing of it.  The egg tube appeared normal and the behavoir looked as I had seen before. The problem is the eggs never came and now the tube looks like a clear pea size bubble.  Any answers as to what maybe going on would be greatly appreciated.

BEST TANK SIZE FOR PARROTS

Tue, 01/15/2013 - 14:23 — barefoot

Hello,

I would like a little help deciding if my purchase of 2 sweet black baby blood parrots was a mistake , I really would like to keep them.

I was told that my 36x15x20 tank which is 47 gallon acrylic would be large enough for them as adults,

but after going online and reading posts on different web sites it seems that a 55 gallon is the smallest size you should have to house them. I would really like your help on this.

thanks Barefoot
