Ok, so a friend of family is terminally ill, and hasn't been able to properly care for his fish for a long time. So he gave us all of his tanks. (You couldn't actually see the fish, the water was brown like a really bad lake. )After a really long day of draining, transporting fish, rearranging furniture, and lugging stuff around, I have them all set up. Now I knew going in, that these were supposed to three decent sized Oscars. I wasn't expecting them to be able to fit a golf ball in their mouths. I know that they need a much larger tank then what they came in, but we are trying to figure out if we are going to keep them, or find them homes. If we keep one or two, we will be getting a much larger tank (or two), as two are in a tiny 55 gallon together(divided), and one came in a 20, but I had an extra 55 to house that one in. Now I know that two are tigers, but I can't name the third one, ( my fave). Please no negatives about how they are in too small of a tank. They are rescues! I'm working on that part. These guys are all about 16 inches long and were hell to catch. I laughed when my husband pulled out the largest net that we had, 8 inches, to catch them in. (we ended up going in by hand).
Anyhow, here are a few pics of them, and any ideas on sex, or type (on the real pretty one) are welcome!
Thanks!
(THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I AM SCARED TO PUT MY HAND IN THE TANK!!!)
