unclewhale im waiting for your supporting detail?
 
I have to say I love my albino Oscars. Not only do they seem to sit around and wait for me to bring them food, I just find watching them is facinating.

They seem to have a love/hate relationship with each other. Literally one minute they can be sleeping at the bottom of the tank leaning against each other then I turn back and they are having some punch up, they then proceed to ignore each other till one misses the other swims up and they just start being together again.

I love them.
 
^ I almost cried :p

I think the best thing about them is how much they love the foods. It's funny, but then they're really messy about it... One thing I love about them is when they're fins aren't torn and the fins are just HUGE then they look really nice.
 
^ I can understand you getting rather emotional about it.

Such a sensitive male :)
 
oscars are like upscale goldfish. much smarter and much more funny. infact i think they should have a name swap with water dogs.

imean, for around 6 dollars + immortal tank cost, you get a good decade of fun like dogs for a fraction of the price even with meds. i think its a steal for a much more convenient equivalent to dogs.

and when that fateful time comes for your best buddy to mulch, you buy another baby and watch yourself become 10 years older! woohoo!
 
I'm really jealous of you guys...its this kind of interaction that I'm looking for, but I'm stuck with a 40G long. I've been trying to find something with same level of personality that could fit but nothing so far :(
 
^ they really are great fish to keep.

They are just so amusing. Luckily I've never had mine fly out of the tank yet, or attack my fingers.
