Tiger, because they change color throughout the day and throughout their life, they also look the best because that is the kind of oscar that I have 
What Oscar?

i had a red oscar that changed color sometimes right before your eyes he would go from a light orange to nearly black. as he grew older his color changes became less frequent and not as drastic, but he never really stopped changing colors.
i always liked my albino better, she was always the underdog. and she was always smaller than the red. she was just the most beautiful gold/orange color.

Personal preference, Wild caught's or Platinum veil tails. Although i have a 14'' Red/gold oscar and have owned a tiger.
Nice Oscar, buddha1200!
Here's a good article on the distinction between albino, leucistic, and lutino Oscars: http://www.oscarfish.com/article-home/oscars/58-what-are-albino-and-lutinos.html
My vote *might* go with a veil-taled leucistic (pictured in the article). I'd have dark substrate and a black background. No tankmates. He'd look like some prehistoric genie hovering in the room.
If my current favorite could read this I'd be in serious trouble.

You didn't specifiy which "Tiger" - I prefer the not so common "Common Tiger Oscar" - Olvie drad, tan/brown, and black (No Red/Orange) - looks like a piece of camoflague.
I like red oscars personally. It's hard to find them around here but I have a tiger and wouldn't trade him for anything. He's always happy.

when we say true albino we mean 100%,most common albino's or lutinos have a ceratin amount of color.like mine in the photo has black around the edges of his fins(sometimes dark sometimes lighter but always there)so he is not a true albino he is lutino.
cool oscars tried oscars with my tank of plumbheads GT and RT but they beat them to death I was at work sad when I came home.
