Oscar Pup.... *pics*

[ReMz]

Just a quick update on Pumba..... He was a silly little guy that drew me in...... Then he turned into a nightmarish "bringer of mayhem" . Gotta love O's.

Pics from when he was a young'n:

and some sloppy pics taken tonight:

Turns out the awesome juvenile patten didn't last .

The way he looks really is negligible. He's been such a character and I have a laugh at him at least once every day. I would have LOVED for him to keep his pattern though. Oh well *shrugs*

Now if only he would give up his bashing the glass top at 6-7am every couple of days >_<.... The pleco is getting very very tired of his antics as well

I love O's. I am eventually going to purchase a tank big enough for 1 or more. But until then, I will have to settle more my Yellow Lab's, Bristlenosed Pleoc's, and Guppies.

the colouring when juvi is awsome!never seen one looking that good. Shame they loose the colouring when they get bigger.

The juvenile coloring seemed to be a rave on many forums (some oscar specific). I guess in my case it doesn't mean much

I wouldn't rule out different feeding methods and water/temp conditions to try to keep these visuals. I'm a rookie when it comes to O's.

Settle?

I have plec and guppy tanks...... but still want an OW tank. Oscars are a lot of fun though.
