He use to be in with 2 everglade gars with live plants and never use to uproot the plants, now he's alone and feels the need to destroy the plants, s*#!head!
 
My Oscar, George, has an inclination to move EVERYTHING around in his tank....including the large deco rocks....They sure are silly creatures!

I'm learning they are big stinkers, they are not my fav fish cuz they are so mean, but I like this one because he eats snails:)

They arn't that mean...AND they have awesome personalities! We had a male & female, but our girl contracted hole in the head, and consequently died from it....
:( But our male, George, has faught it off and still lives today!!

My BF's old one's always picked on the other fish, which drove me nuts, cuz they were gars. This one was in our 190 gal and he picked on my peruvian gar, that's probably why I don't care for him...
 
i cant even keep plastic plants rooted with my oscar and jags, its always a never ending battle to bury the plants as deep as i can in the gravel - i never matters b/c they just rip them out anyway - same goes with rocks and driftwood - i have given up trying to aquascape my cichlid tank
 
I have A long Tailed Albino Oscar if you like the way oscars swim you will love them ... imagine on oscar with tail and fins as long as his body almost looks like an angel when he swims
