Great looking Oscar. I just got a blue Oscor. His name is Oscor. :ROFL:
I will Post some pictures of him later.

very nice name. i havent named mine yet. but, just decided to name one David and the other one Lisa.
 
Sweet pics.
If a pic is clear enough to explain to somebody what the sensory pits on oscars are, you're doing an excellent job.
Wish i found a camera like that!lol

people who are new to oscars thinks its hole-in-the-head. but, its sensory pits like you said. actually this camera is last years award winning Panasonic DMC Z-5 compact camera. 10mega pixels and you can acheive great results with it. ive also got a Nikon dslr (5x more expensive) and i get better results from the cheap Panasonic. it only cost me £170 in febuary 2009. so if you shop around you can probably get it for less than half of the original rrp.

just so you know your poor little guy has been dyed to be that color and is actually an albino O, this process is super stressful on them and will fade in a month or so and severely cuts down their life span, some people dont know about this but please just let this be a learning experience for you and dont support the practice by buying anymore of these poor Os

as for OP your Os look GREAT, its always good to see nice big Os that you can tell have been well taken care of, all the big Os i see around here have been kept in little tanks and are full of HITH and being given away for free on craigslist because only after several years they now "too big for my tank" ugh

He/she called it's OSCAR, "Oscor" i dont think he'll listen unless you hold up a spongebob figurine and talk thru it.

not being rude. but, if somebody gave me a free vieltail oscar i wouldnt accept it. i personally find them ugly and too similiar in appearance to a fancy goldfish. . .
Yeah a fancy goldfish that could smash the eyes out of a fancy goldfish!!!
 
Nice O's, I was never a big Oscar fan but those two make me want one. Really nice looking fish, great job!
