Parrot fish are a man made crossbreed. Not much is known about their breed specific ailments yet. Black Spot Disease, Ready to mate, water quality issue, changing color naturally as it matures, The black on your fish could be any one of these. Most of the time one or another of these will produce the markings and will not have an impact on the fishes behavior. You can attempt to medicate the tank if you want, if it is a disease parasite then Maracide would probably work best. It could also clear up on it's own. I would do a water change and test water quality first.

Only if their water conditions are foul. My advice if this happens is to change most of its water ASAP.

My goldfish turned black and just died what happened to it?

When fish turn black, it means that their body has been harmed with too much ammonia. Ammonia to fish is like acid to human skin. The black you might be talking about is called ammonia burn, which makes the fish scales black. My comet goldfish has been through that before, although it lived. Nearly the whole body was black besides the core stomach area. If a fish has too much ammonia in it's water, it might die, because high ammonia levels are not good for fish, as well as it will make the fish black im the same person who asked the question. How does ammonia get into the water. From tap water?
