oscars?

are those 4 Os already in the 110 or still in the 55g? your water looks a bit cloudy i would suggest checking your parameters and doing a water change. cant advise whether that size pond would be big enough as i dont know anything about the temperament or adult size of a "water cow" but it would be big enough for the others
Every tank I have looks like that. It isn't the perimeters. They are in a 110. I wouldn't bring home the 2 bigger ones in till it was ready. Also if it is cloudy from the perimeters it would be because the tank is adjusting to the new bioload, the 2 bigger ones were added on Friday. And the water is a greenish color and I have tried the stuff that was suppose to make it go away I forget the name right now and it killed 3 of my fish so not using that again. I had my 20gl running with nothing in it for 3 months and the water remained cloudy.
I want to make sure this is what I was told. I know he won't fit in the oscars mouth. I am pretty sure I will have to break him from live food. Any ideas on how to do so? I never have had to do it before.
I have no idea. I was just told cow fish, or water cow. I will have to ask John tomorrow. I trust the feeders where I get them. I know how they are taken care of and if they have any issues with a big abnormal loss in feeders they won't sell them. I have seen what they do to treat them and everything. Will it still get along with the oscars, clowns and rb pacu?
That looks like a Toadfish to me. If it is you will have a hard time getting it off of live food. Toadfish also have poisonous spines in their fins. The spines are not really life threatening but they hurt really bad for a few days. I'm not certain that the fish is a Toadfish from that one picture but I thought I'd just mention my experience with them. The only "Water Cow" that I've heard of around here are Manatees.
I am pretty sure it is a water cow goby.

That is one of the images you get if you google water cow goby.

I stand corrected. From the google search pictures I can see that it is a goby. Good luck with that and your other tank inhabitants.Silvertears;4295796;4295796 said:
Thank you. I might be pushing it but I was wondering if either a silver arowana and or spotted florida gar would also be able to go with these guys. It will be a 1080gl pond.
