Nice. I also used a bottle of XXXX cola.

You should notice he does not like it when the tube moves (when you did not hold it). I think it is better to hold it so he would have more confidence in this trick. My parrot also preffers it that way. After he masters it you can hold it slightly up in the air or from up to down etc.
