These guys arrived today and are eating already first day in the tank. I’ve never ordered fish so painlessly before and am very pleased with the fish, professionalism, and communication. Really looking forward to seeing these grow out.

Great looking wc Oscars and Jeff Rapps is a great vendor indeed.

Great looking O's I too recently got a wild caught Oscar, from The Wet Spot but mine is Columbian. I am going to start his own thread. We can see how the different colors and marking change as they grow.

Subbed

One week update. They took right away to Fluval Bug Bites pellets and have been getting those, red wrigglers, krill and insects. I’ve ordered 2.5 kg of Northfin and will be making that more of the staple here in the future.

I think they will really develop with age. They are still small.

I believe they are a subspecies personally. Some people have had them on here before years ago.
