Description: The Quoyi Parrotfish is a beautiful parrotfish heralding from the West Pacific. They are almost rainbow in color. Although they are known in the hobby as a "reef-safe" parrot, this should only be done with caution. They are technically not reef safe as they scrape for algae on coral reefs in the wild. It is important to provide a large space with ample rockwork. This Parrot will love lots of seaweed along with meaty foods.
