My Oscars will take Market prawns with or without the shells and do so till their bellies bulge, and it hangs out their mouth...regular piggies
A molting lobster? yummy says the Oscar...that's where my money is...bummer for the lobster, spendy meal for the Oscar...:D
 
you sure who ever did it is going to live with my piranha:irked: every one but my oscar...

i beleave i was the pleco's i just saw one of them sucking on his leg......:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
 
lol your funny one of my pleco's i got with my snakehead i never wanted it the snake head was so big copared to the pleco. it sat on my snakehead sucking god kno's wut out of his head so pushed the pleco off him the lady i got him from thot they were buddys !!!!LOL!! she said the snakehead never hurt him. BUT the snakehead had weird marks on his head from the pleco basicly eating him. so i think the pleco's a very likely suspect!!plus its afoot long my lobster was 5"....
 
If they get hungry they will sometimes eat the slime coating of other fish and i have heard of bigger 15" plus plecos eating small fish by pinning them against ground or glass but i doubt they would have ate something that wasnt tiny. More then likely the oscar killed it and they cleaned up the leftovers.
 
FOR SURE IT WAS THE OSCAR
I would feed mine crayfish or crawdads if your in the south
not small ones either, the ones that would slice your finger with there claws
he just crushed em up and ate them, and loved them
he never went crazy over any other food only after the crayfish
 
I agree. give them the chance, and Os will eat anything that fits in thier mouth.
Maybe he was just pretending to be affraid until the lobster's guard was down?
