RE: Don't Buy Oscar Fish - 6 Reasons Why

[TheReefer]

Oscars are omnivores, quality pellet give them all they need for that and over dosing with proteins adds to nitrate creep. I gave freeze dried super krill soaked in boyds over night the night before water changes because I new it was going to send my tank over the edge but I water changing in the morning so no worries.

Yeah so I give them pellets and some frozen and live food, I also hear some people feed theirs fruits and vegetables, though I haven't tried it

I look forward to the day i can properly keep a group of oscars. They are a bear to maintain, but feeding is easy! Throw pretty much...anything into the tank.

I feed too much and change the water too much.
I think it's just an excuse to spend more time with my fish.
