What kind of oscar is this?

[C L O W N K N I F E]

As the title says, what kind of oscar is this? Looks very cool and I'd like to know. Is it some sort of wild tiger oscar or?

My guess is some type of hybrid from over seas.

im thinking that the colours will fade and it will turn out to be a standard tiger.. but i will say he/she is very beautiful specimen

I'd say just a regular Tiger Oscar. When I worked at an aquarium store as a teenager about 15 years ago most of the small ones came in looking like this.

This, I've seen Tiger Oscars come in like this when smaller. I've never seen them stay like that though.

I didn't mean to imply that they stayed like the picture. They always faded as they got older and the patterns changed on them as well.

My bad, must of worded that poorly. I wasn't trying to imply that you implied it. XD

I bought one that looked similar to yours quite a few years ago.Those are just baby colors/patterns. Mine grew up to look like this (the second pic was the day he died, so don't flame me for holding him like that...he was already dead):

That's a shame you lost him. He was nice.
