The answer is YES, Parrot fish do indeed bite. Some have unique personalities, and may be more aggressive towards other fish. Mine tries to nip me every time I clean his tank. One time I made a fist and held still to see if he was bluffing. He wasn't. It feels like a strong pinch and actually left a small bruise on my index finger. They also have small bones inside their mouths that allow them to crush hard foods. You can hear mine crunching sinking cichlid pellets that I can't even crush between my fingers.
