So I've had my new red tiger oscar for about 2 weeks now. He's about 3-4 inches long (and growing pretty fast! he looks bigger already then when I bought him). So far I've been feeding him a mixture of live crickets, frozen bloodworms, beef heart, frozen brine shrimp (mix usually just makes a HUGE mess), and frozen peas. I also have two 4 senegal bichirs in the tank so they do a pretty good job of picking up left over beef heart and blood worms.
The worms in the compost pile in the backyard are still pretty small, but they start to get to a good size in July. So once they get to be the right size I'll start to him them those as well.
What else do you guys think I can feed my oscar? Also, what other kind of fresh produce that I can find in my kitchen can be fed to him?
