oscar

I have a “blue gene” jd, and a albino tiger Oscar. Right now they both are housed in separate 55 gallon tanks, due to the fact that their both only about 5 inches long. My question is, could I house these fish together in a 120 or 125 or would they be constantly fighting? I had them together in...

Okay i have 2 Oscars. They are under 6in so i had them in a 55 by themselves. ( Yes i have 120 not set up yet for when or if they get larger). Anyway i bought a 3in channel cat for my pond but figured id grow it out with the os in the 55 for the winter and then it would be in the pond 500 gall...

I'm sure this has been asked before but the search if failing me. The two oscars are still just babies in a 125 gallon tank. The tiger oscar is just a tad bigger than the my albino and he's the aggressive one. Yesterday I introduced 6 Zebra Danios as target fish. (I'm aware that they will be...

Ok I had an issue little over a month ago about my Oscars being unnaturally shy. I posted my problem on here and went through all of the suggestions until I came down to the last resort of going with the idea of either adding some dither fish or as someone mentioned adding in another active...

In a few days my new 5*2*2 aquarium will be finished and later needs to be setup.I thought of having an asian arowana untill fish reaches 1 and a half feet in length, 1 oscar, 6 clown loaches med sized, 1 black ghost knife fish which i already have(6-7 inches), along with 3-4 sea...

This is my first post here so I hope it's in the right category. I've got my first big fish. A 12 inch oscar. He was a little bit of a rescue amd impulse buy as the fish store couldn't get him to eat. He is temporarily in a 40 gallon tank and I do daily water changes (about 50 percent) Temp...

I've been looking for the perfect wet pet for my 29 tall, and I've given up so i'll ask you guys. I LOVE PARACHROMIS SPECIES, but none of them can fit in a 30. But that gives you a genre of fish that i'd like. But yeah, I'm asking you guys (and girls) what a good wet pet would fit in this tank.

Looking for advice on this combination of monsters....

Hi I'm new to MonsterFishKeepers and this is my first post. My first post is looking for some advice, I have a pair of Oscars that I've had for about 2 months that are still shy and hide when I approach the tank. They have definitely grown since I bought them and they swim around freely until I...

Hi there! I set up a new 255L (~67 gallon) tank for my adult oscar about three months ago as I was having unrelated issues with his old one. As it's virtually impossible to acquire clear ammonia where I live, I decided to do a fish-in cycle with six tiger barbs and some filter media from an...

Do you guys love Oscar! I love them so you will love them as well So here is the thread on how to properly care for your loved ones Overview Oscar fish belongs to cichlid family and are known by scientific name Astronotus ocellatus. They thrive best in their natural habitat which is located...

My oscars have laid eggs twice now neither times have been successful I've been observing alot more now to find out what's going on below I'll have pictures and maybe someone can tell me what they think is happening

I've managed to pick up a really nice specimen "chili" red Oscar, and it's the veil tailed/long finned variant. I'll get some pictures up as soon as he/she arrives tomorrow. For any potential plans that I may have in the future for breeding, I was wondering if I could get some of my fellow MFK...

So my oscar has spots all over him the last couple days that look like sand.. I have a sand substrate and there is some that was floating on the top until I just bought a new filter... so I don't think it's ich because he seems perfectly healthy and isn't rubbing against anything.. is it...

Guys in your opinion can we make a new breed of Oscars from selective breeding of them, Guys let me know you ideas and I some are suitable then let's give it a try. Is that legal to creat a new strain of cichlid at your fishroom or do you need some kind of permits

Hi, I'm new to signing up to Monster Fish Keepers but I've seen many threads online when looking for advice on bichir and oscar care and behaviors...are here any groups or forums that I can join about bichirs and oscars..suggestions?

Hello! Please excuse me if this is posted in the wrong area, I'm very very new to these forums. I recently received an Oscar as a gift... I know. I don't wanna take him back to the LFS because they don't take care of their fish. The tanks are always in horrible condition and I don't have the...

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.

I have had this oscar from nickle size. It is paired off with a tiger oscar the same size. I believed it to be a veiled oscar until someone showed me one. I don't think veiled quite fits the description. Anyway let me know what you guys think of my beast. There has been no augmentation to the...
