Picked up two 10" Lutino Tiger Oscars today from Premier Aquatics in Marietta, GA. Those guys are awesome.

So funny story: I was afraid I'd have some immediate aggression problems from one of the P.bass because there is one very dominant one in the tank. Always picking on the gar, chasing the others every now and then, nothing too serious, but obviously proving his dominance. So I kept a close eye on everyone once I dropped the new oscars in. Not only was there 0 aggression toward them what so ever, the dominant peacock bass is actually afraid of them! Whenever one of them swims close to him, he flares his gills, gets super dark, and takes his first chance to dart to the other side of the tank. The oscars on the other hand could care less about any of the other inhabitants.

nice, love a pretty blondie oscar. my lutino.
 
he has a little graying on the pec fins, this rules him out as albino.

Thanks, graying did not show up till around 6 months old, typical for lutinos. and personally rather have a lutino than an albino, they do not have the vision issues and other gene issues that come with it.
