My Oscar Need Help

You have a pond right? I guess it should be okay. How big is it exactly?

LILTIM88 · May 9, 2008

The Pond is real big about 2500gallons maybe. We got a Pakcu about the same size as him they seem to play with each other.

Oh, I'd go right ahead and add another one then.

is the pond an indoor one or an outdoor one??

LILTIM88 · May 9, 2008

Its Outdoor pond. With 2 red ear turtles, Snapper, Then My Oscar and the Pacu. Oscar and Pacu are about the same size.

ok then yah u can add maybe 2 more oscars and maybe one or 2 pacus ( i forgot but are pacus herbvinours? )

Post some pics of your pond! It sounds really nice.

And yeah a pond is a totally new thing for your Oscar so he'll be a little skittish.

Ya it seems that The oscar is feeling better now just got home from work and looked at him he didnt mind me. Watching him beat up the Pacu is funny tho, he just open his mouth and run up to the pacu so that it runs away.
Ya They are herbvinours but will eat small fish (which my pacu eats). Also saw it eat the crayfish we had in there.

Hey lil bro, heres some pics i have of Oscar De La Hoya. Ill also add some pics of the pond. Sadly, the Pacu (2pAc) died the other day. So now the oscar is all sad. Hes trying to make friends with our Gar now lol. Were gonna get him a new playmate. The Pacu was huge, ill get pics of him on here soon as well. But this should suffice for now. Any suggestions?

THANKS!

PS- I also have alot more pics on my albums, check em out. :turtle:
