I'd say mine are around twelve feet long guaged by my built in yard stick as a measuring device.

Probably more like a foot if a ruler were used!
Huh? At first I thought maybe the first part was a typo and you meant to say "inches" rather than "feet", but then I read the second sentence, and now I'm kinda confused.
 
Same as dub, my first O was 13" at one year old. I didn't understand enough about water buffering and couldn't cure his HITH so I gave him up. My new Oscar is a year and a half and has just passed the 12" mark.
 
hi had my albino for about a year he's just over 13 inches and never looked at another fish, big softy

My oscar is about 13 inches in a 6x2x2 (180 gallon) fed on L.F.S and sometimes frozen blood worms.
Quite a looker, and i guess it's parents were a red and a tiger.;)

Nice to see the mix between the 2 kinds.
My red and tiger have a different colour of red in them.

i just hope mine grow just as big as yours, but mine aren't adults yet.
My red is 11" at a little under 2 years old.
 
biggest i personally owned? hmm gotta be about 10 inches ( got the oscar from my aunt ) bur right now the biggest is just about 5.5 and 6 inches
 
Mine at the momnet is about 8 1/2 inches and got him april 09 but i had him in a 10 gallon for about three month so that is why he might not of grown much but now in a 250 gallon with tinfoils catfish and jaguar cichlid!!!
 
The big one is 15"++, the lutino is just over 13", and the smaller tiger is 10". The small juvenile motaguense in the bottom of the picture is 4" for reference.
