Don’t feel bad. You didn’t know and you didn’t cut their tails off. But now you know so don’t buy anymore. They will still live a healthy life. Take care of them. Still beautiful even if they were mutilated!

They do this on purpose. They cut the tail off when they are young to get that heart shape and then call them sweetheart parrots. Do not support these practices please!!!
Man, I thought this was done through selective breeding. I feel so sad for these fish.
