I have had this fish from a baby it's been feed hikari marmokrebs crickets and the occasional green horned worm. The photo is real not photo shopped I'm sorry the quality is not 100% but I tryed. I would like to see if i could get some votes for that fish of the month thing.

That is an awesome Oscar
That finnage I don't see too often
 
Hiw did they come up with the name "lion tail"?
 
Very cool, Interesting tail.

Fish of the month isn't running at the moment
 
I have heard the term used with Betta fish. I would guess it's because the fins look like a lions mane around there body.
 
I really like the long-fins. Wish we saw more of them. The color on yours is awesome. Here's my young pair. (not a POTM pic)

I think yours have some serious potential. Keep the diet varried and the temp high and they get real big real fast. I found that if you get them to eat an algea waffer once in a while it does wounders.

Oddball will surely make some wondeful fish! I'm sure he knows what he's doing ;)
 
There are a few lurking around.
