Biggest Oscar? Who has it?

Okay, fellas. I hear 16". I hear 18". Anybody got 'em? Mine is only 12" and one year old, so he's not in the game yet. How about yours?

That thing on steroids? lol I have 3 at about 13".

I've always wanted to get like a 300g with like 5 fx5s and get a single really nice wild oscar and see how big it can grow.

And people still say you can keep them in a 55 gallon

Breathless, here. Beautiful specimens. But none at the 15" mark yet... I guess it's a little hard to come by seven-foot-tall people, too.

Actually, I had to cut back on feeding for awhile to keep nitrates low before I got the 125g set up. I'm hoping I got lucky and have a true giant, but my last Oscar got to thirteen inches in one year and was much thicker. There's just no way to tell until they get a few years old.
