Hello everyone. Had a quick question on my oscars behavior. I have 3 oscars in a 180 gallon tank. Lately one of them is moving alot of gravel and looks to be making a clearing. and hovering over the spot not letting the others near it. Sometimes when its near the bottom its head starts twitching a little and it circles around the clearing more than not. Is this fish looking to drop eggs? or am i just getting my hopes up
 
Sounds promising. I have a clay plate for my oscars so I can pull the eggs out after they do their dirty sinful business...that way I can raise the babies up without worry. It is more time intensive than letting them do the work, but I can raise more babies than they can.
 
Sounds like pre-spawn behavior....
