in the picture the fish is just takin a look at my bleheri I am watchin it very closely am about to transfer them to another tank so they will safe for sure, I have a 70g at home I just brought my needlenose gar from.

this will make you cry I use to have 3 of them and my biggest one 8 inch jummped it made me sick to my stomach, I spent over 2 hours looking for it in the tank on the floor. I even did a sweep of 6-8 feet around the tank and could not find it, the next morning when I came into my restaurant I found it dried up on the floor 25 feet from its tank.

this is him in better days, sucks so bad cause i woulda had 2 of one sex 1 of the other

For some reason i thought you were in New Jersey strange but the name implies a lot about the fish.

I did a bit of search on them to see what I have on my hands and I have come to the decision that I am going to dedicate this 140g to them. Their coloration stunns me and from what I have read smaller fish will sort of be left alone by them. What shocks me about them is that it is the female who is the killer vibrant color show rather than the male, totally different than all my other fish should be an interesting tank.

The Oscar looks like a wild caught Oscar or a regular old fashion original Oscar... very nice

I have owned a few of them and this one has almost no orange he goes totally black, the pic was taken when he had just gone in the tank from the bucket I will try for a few better shots
