Hi,
We are new to having an aquarium and my daughter has had a parrot fish for about a month in a 10g aquarium. Everything was fine.
She wanted to add a couple of smaller fish. The pet store clerk said the barb-tiger should get along ok with the parrot so we added two of them.
The parrot didn't seem to like them at all from the beginning but how do I really tell?
Now all three of them have white spots diagnosed as Ick. Is this caused by the stress of adding the two fish?
Should we remove the barb-tiger fish and if so, is there a small fish that would work well with the parrot?
Thanks in advance for any help.
