thanks , im liking the black edging to the fins that is starting to develop , would be nice if they keep that .

Awwww they are just sooooooo cute.

i think what im enjoying about them the most soo far is that they actually seem to be able to show genuine expressions on their faces .

The thing I love with Chops & Tigger is their ability to move their eyes skywards almost coming out of the sockets Rusty tends not to do it for some reason.

lol . i thing im learning is that oscars are premantly starving mine have learnt that the pellets are kept on the shelf in my cabinet , so if they see me bend down to the cabinet they go racing down to the bottom to check if im getting them or not , and if they dont see the packet the go off and sulk in the corner

soooooo much more fun than the discus were

i have always been prepared to try oscars - never really worked out. always bad things happened for no apparent reason.

 

[markandhisfish]

a lot of people find that certain species they just cant get any joy with. for me its most types of tetras , they always die on me

for a while it was otos and plecos. then i got a common sold as a bristlenose. it has been alive since august but i need to give it back to the store beforeit gets too big. i have always had this special interest in tiger oscars, but they have never made it longer than a day in my tank. now im just at semi agressives - tetras, barbs, angels, gouramis ect. because i was so angry i couldnt keep an oscar.
