Oscars...Just Curious

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks guys i just wanted some inputs..well ill just have to wait n c when they reach about 6"? i think my tank might be a bit to crowded..i have 3 Oscars albino...1 silver aro and 2 babies FH...but they all seems to get along very fine...
 
it depends on the personality,mine doesn't eat other cichlids I put into the tank,but will eat feeder fishes.People say they are aggressive and others say they're not.On the other hand my Tiger O can put up a fight,if another cichlid in the tank decides to challenge him for territory.
 
Yeah albino or not you have the same fish other than color. Maybe minor personality differences but they're oscars weather they are albino or normal.
 
My Grannys Albino Oscar is a Phsyco! The only tank mate he has is a Pleco. He is such an agro head! :D I love oscars sadly have to give em up. Now i have 1 Silver Arowana,Clown Knife fish,TSNxLei,2 Sun Cats,C.Pleco,Rotkeil Severum,Giraffe Catfish :D:D:D:
 
I could never see myself,replacing The Tiger Oscar I have,as soon as this one passes away,he will be my first and last Oscar I will ever have,due to the fact I doubt I will ever run into a Oscar that will not eat Cichlids smaller than him.
 
Well its just a hit or a miss to run into a Oscar that will not touch the smaller tank mates,but will go after a minnow in a heart beat.Last time I gave him a minnow,that thing was bigger than my 3 in half inch Green Teror.It was amazing to see the Tiger O swallow the minnow up like nothing.
 
At young stages they are not so aggressive, but as they later grow..they need more space and they want to show whose boss.

But in a 200 gallon... I think it could go fine... pretty big tank for 3 oscars... what other tank mates are you planning on getting for them?
