I see them all the time at my lfs. They usely run about $17.00 for a 4-5 in one here.
lol i want an oscar. but the biggest empty tank i have is 55g. I know they need more room then that. :(
 
I am now keeping my 3rd one also they come around bout 4 or 5 times a year now but several yrs ago like once a year. My avatar has a pic of the last one I kept for about 8 yrs
 
I see them often, but usually they have short fins! WTF?!

EDIT: I couldn't help but notice the last four posts were avatar O's.
 
i saw my first at a LFS last week. i would've bought one but i already have to regular oscars, with no room for more . . .
