I'm not a huge oscar fan. But, I saw what was reported to be a wild O and it looked pretty cool. Different than any other I have seen to date.
 
I like em all. Mine is kind of a lutino, and I will probably eventually get 1 other...I voted wild because the 2nd will probably be a wild strain.

I love the look of a normal, tiger, or red with nice dark black background...sometimes their base color is a brownish, I like when the body is pure black like the fins.

Anyone else buy into the thought that O's aggression varies based on the color strain? I've heard that wild & tiger are the most aggro, then reds, then the albino & longfin strains. Not sure I buy it, you'd have to look at lots of O's to get a fair idea, and even if they're the same color their temperament varies...but I know people who swear albinos are more mellow, and that tigers are very aggressive.
 
I don't know about the aggression differences but from what I've noticed tigers seem to get larger than the other strains.
 
my favorite oscar is a dead oscar ha ha ha :D
 
i'm sure it's just a personality thing, but i'm finding that my red oscar is friendlier and interacts with me more than the albino. But the albino (Toni) is prettier (and yes, i think of it as a female), but she's mean and instigates fights and then the Red (Rocky) feels the need to defend her.
 
Whether its called Lemon or Gold those are my kinda O's
