I found this guy in the lfs down the street from me. I couldn't resist picking him up because he has a very unique pattern. Has anyone seen one like this?
Tiger Oscar with strange pattern...pics.

Salsa - for one, it's just a baby, and for two, that's just a little scrape from a net or something.
HITH is much uglier, and overall shows a wasting away of the head area - with white pockmarks and blemishes.

Its normal, most tigers show these patterns when they are young and as they grow the multiple stipes usually fade out a bit into one color. Here is a pic of my liitle guy as a juvie and a pic of him now. You can see what im talking about.
REC - are you SURE????? I'm thinking to myself that there is no way that can be the same fish.
I know they do change, but ... a tiger turning into a red.... don't think this ever happens.

I agree with REC thats a normal pattern for a young O. It chould change in to a more common looking tiger O. Who knows maybe it will keep some of its crazy pattern.

Thanks santoury. I got it from a place called Premium Pets in Bradford, MA. It's kind of a hit or miss place...sometimes a little pricey, but it's decent.
