Thanks, that cichlid gold every night helps along with a mixed diet of mixed foods and he can graze on that floating plant as he wants to fill his vegi diet, he gets what he needs and is happy in my opinion, he is very interactive with me!! I recommend one to anyone who wants an oscar but doesn't have the tank size such as a 40-55g tank, that is just right for one of these and like a firemouth or two.

Yea, they are a little more laid back so you can put a few larger community fish with it like platys and such, not neons but larger ones like black skirts and such.

Very nice looking Green Severum!!! Thanks for sharing pics! Have you thought about showing him in a bowl show? You would probably win the New World Cichlid class.
