is the little O just a juv silver?
will he go red?
he was from a tank of reds, and B4 any1 says he will get munched he has been in there over a week and is doing fine:headbang2

any1 got a silver O?
 
My uncle had a 1 inch O that was silver, but turned red at about 3", and stayed red. I also know that baby tiger oscars have gold stripes instead of red- I think this is something like that.
 
thanks 4 that, i no about the changing on tigers, i have a tiger o that has next 2 no orange on him but as a inch fish was red as red can be:screwy:
 
There was somebody a long time ago that I knew that had an O like that. It was about 8" and showed no sign of changing. Looks like he could really use some food though. And maybe a small quarantine tank to himself for a little while so he can get some meat on him....

AGREED.. until hes a MOnster himself, give him a Q tank, to beef him up!
 
he gets as mutch as he will eat, thing is he eats verry little and only blood worm + he is pooping only a white sack?

any ideas on this guys?
 
It sounds like it could be internal parasites he looks a little thin from the pic. Do you have a better pick. Also are those the only two fish in there. The larger oscar may kill the smaller one. IMO they should not be kept as pairs because one will become more dominant and beat the other one up likley with ill results.
 
no there is
4 x O's
5x silver D's
and some cat's

and untill 2moro 2 x snake heads
