so a semi local women has 2 oscars, and a pleco... one red oscar and other is a albino both are alittle bigger then a popcan in length
at the moment i have a 75g and 130g 6ft tank up and going with fish in it too.... 75g has 2 jack dempseys(5-6"), 4-5 convicts(2-3"), yellow lab(3"), hap morri blue dolphin(3"), pleco, and chinese algea eater, 130g has one tiger oscar (5"), one cichlasome dimerus(6"), one tailspot ctenopoma(3"), one convict(4"), black ghost knife fish(8").. and yes everyone gets along with one another
but anyway this semi local women has these 2 oscar and pleco in a 38gallon tank, with a 7-8" pleco ... the red oscar has HITH albino seems to be ok, they've had them in this 38gallon since they were babies, basically they were her husbands and he took care of em and everything, he left awhile ago and she hasnt done anything for them so they have been neglected for 3 months atleast form what she tells me....
so i was going to take them off her hands before they end up dieing in the tank, i have a QT tank setup which ive had forever as a QT.. im thinking i'll put the red oscar in there and then add a 12" air stone, and put temp up to 82deg and add milafix and pimafix, and do 30% water changes every other day for him... as for the albino if that one is totaly healthy looking and eats well i'll introduce it into my 130g and as for the pleco im not sure maybe a local fish store will take him, unless someone on the forum here would want to buy him or trade for a peice of cool driftwood or cool plants.....
do you's think the measure's above will be sufficient enough to bring him back to better health ? here are some pics she sent me today im going to get them friday morning
