Just kinda wondering.....

[Chad55]

Has anybody seen an all white oscar with no orange on it? Well they have some really small ones at my LFS and believe it or not I actually kinda like em (not a huge oscar fan). I was just wondering what do you guys think they would look like when bigger. Would they stay solid white or what? Anybody have a picture? Thanks guys

the LFS here had them in a few months ago, they called them white pearls..this was the first time i have ever seen them,or heard of them.
usually its the albino tigers, they were 10$, and at that time i didnt feel like spending 10 bucks on a tiny oscar, AND you never know..the color could always develope later on

however, i think i would buy one now, just to see what happens, plus i am very fond of O's, especially the pigment impaired types, lol

I had one of those solid pink Oscars once. Because of him I will never have another one of those nasty, bullying, feeder-ripper-upper, plant killing, retarded fish.
By the way, it was about 13" long, and close to 5 years old when he was given to a friend in trade for a 5" silver arowana. I definately got the best end of that deal. I wish that fish was a person, I'd punch him in the face. I hate those damn things.....

I have seen albino tiger oscars. It had pretty bad head and lateral line disease though.

So it was 13"? Was it all white when you got it and did it stay all white? I don't really like oscars but these ones just appealed to me for some reason.
