Parrot fish, live around coral reefs, rocks, and beds of sea grass. They also prefer tropical waters.

Parrotfish have specialized beak-like teeth that allow them to scrape algae off coral reefs. They also have a mucous cocoon that they excrete to protect themselves from parasites while sleeping at night. Some parrotfish can change color to blend in with their surroundings or to communicate with other fish.
No, it is not recommended to house female bettas with parrotfish. Parrotfish are aggressive and can be territorial, which could lead to stress, injury, or even death for the female bettas. It's best to keep them in separate tanks to ensure the well-being of both species.
Algae------------Although they are considered to beomnivoeparrotfish eat a wide variety of organisms that live on coral reefs. Some species, for example Bolbometopon muricatum may include corals (polyps) in their diet. Their feeding activity is important for the production and distribution of coral sands in the reef biome and can prevent algae from choking coral. They eat plants at the bottom of the sea and the other animals poop.
Most fish do not eat live coral as it is hard and not very nutritious. However, some fish, such as the butterflyfish and parrotfish, may nip at coral polyps or feed on coral mucus. These interactions typically do not harm the coral if kept in balance with the ecosystem.
