:screwy: ooook. you should change that avatar of yours before the mods see it.
 
Your oscars problem is caused from stress or bad water quality. What size tank is it in, how large is it and what are your water parameters?
 
It's the slime coat peeling off. An Oscar in a 40 gallon tank can cause that. Other fish think it's tasty, does he have any tankmates in that tank?

As for the avatar, it's a brand, I see nothing wrong with it.
 
just a 4inch pleco and x3 3inch jack dempseys but im getting rid of the the dempseys

and my avatar is from the KoRn - A.D.I.D.A.S. video lol
 
So, in your 40g, you have one oscar, 3 jd's and a 4 inch plec?

do you have any plans for upgrading?
