Never seen an Oscar quite like this one.

I don’t know if many of you follow the Instagram page or not.
This is a screenshot from the official page.
Thought it was interesting. I’ve not seen too many like this.
Does it belong to anyone on the forum?

Don't know who owns it but the pattern on the Oscar is unique and beautiful.

If it`s real it is amazing. I saw a picture years ago of an Oscar, supposedly from a tributary of the Amazon, that the lower half of the fish was bright red. The write up said it was a hard to get to location so don`t expect to see them any time soon. I haven`t.

Looks almost like a Jag pattern to it.

that's really cool. i wonder if it would constitute a third species in the astronotus genus or if it'd just be considered a color variation of one of the existing species. considering how different it looks surely it would be classified as a new species? but then, i'm no ichthyologist, so who knows!

I don’t know anything about this fish just thought it looked interesting .
If you image search “marbled Oscar “
You can see a couple of pictures but not to this extent.

I wonder how it will look as it matures. If you look closely, there's a person's thumb on the side which suggest that this is a juvie around 3"-4" (give or take). All juvie Oscars have awesome patterns at a small size.
